well I know that all these fish work together but they are all under 6 months old at the moment i have 4 Oscars biggest one being about 6 inch's and a single green terror is about 5 and rules the tank and a single jack Dempsey who is about 3 inch's doesn't bother anyone or seems to be bothered by anyone all seem to be getting along fine small aggression due to one of the Oscars being added 3 days ago my main problem I'm wondering is if all these fish make it to full size is a 210 gallon big enough there is plenty of hiding spots for everyone lots of line of sight cut offs on the bottom half of the tank i left the top half empty for swimming room for them


i have a 75 g that im thinking of putting my green terror and jack into if problems occur but ive only been keeping cichlids since last January so im still learning about sizes I've seen full adult Oscars in fish stores but never in my tank and im not live feeding just frozen once every 1-2 weeks and pellets the rest of the time any info on the topic would be wonderful thanks
 
Surviving & thriving are two different things. The listed group of potentially XL Cichlids could conceivably coexist in a 210 gal. tank, if appropriate filtration is provided & a rigorous weekly maintenance plan is followed.
Your setup would likely resemble a vendor's holding tank rather than a decorative home aquarium.
