Not neccesarily, he could put a con, or a firemouth, or even an acara . All those fish get to about 6'' and that'd be fine imomark377;5120245; said:

X2. Technically you can " fit" more fish but I'm not sure I'd do it myself
2 x Tiger Oscars 8-9"
2 x Electric Blue Cichlid 6-7" (Fryeri correct? and not EBJD?)
2 x JDs 4-5"
1 x Pleco 8-9" (What type of pleco? Common?)
You're pretty stocked there with a very heavy bio load between the two Oscars and the Pleco (specially if it's a common)

the electric blue cichlids might stay in the 40 gal because they have been showing a lot of breeding behavior. and they jack dempseys might go back to the lfs. i like them but ive had them for several months and their fins have a lot of splits in them. when i got them the store owner said they should heal in a few weeks and never did. the oscars and the pleco are definitely going in the 125 looking for maybee 1-2 larger fish that might get along easily and be fun to keep.
I wouldn't place anymore large cichlids in your 125 with two Oscars and a large pleco. You could add a few smaller cichlids but no more big boys.thejackmfk;5120327;5120327 said:
