ok i am thinking about getting a 125 for my Oscars to go in, but i wont some thing else in there with them, they have a catfish that i will probably get rid of, Silver-tip shark is going to friend who has a brackish water aquarium, and a sailfin pleco. I was thinking arowanna or jardini but are they to big for a 125g? If they are what is a good-sized schooling fish i could put in with th O's, Except tinfoil barbs i have ahd them before and although they are pretty i would like something different. and what type of catfish, should i go Pictus, Eclipse or Sunset, i am open for suggestions? Also would parrots or severum be okay. Just let me know i guys i had an idea about if but first i want to see what you guys have to say about it. Thanks all and pics will be coming soon, hopefully
Thinking about 125g?

Eclipse Catfish get about the same size as Oscars, I believe, so I think ya. Severums are also good with Oscars. Maybe get another Oscar? I'd probably go with 2 Severums, 2-3 Eclipse catfish, maybe a school of clown loaches as well? Aros get to big for a 125g I believe.
what about parrots? would they work? I am open to all suggestions? and is $475 a good price for a 125 with lights, filters, and stand? i havent seen it yet but will sometime this weekend, so i couldnt tell you what filter(s) it is.
Parrots do fine in 125's look in my gallery theres one in my bf's 125g. =) Irridecent sharks, tinfoil barbs, balla sharks, types of catfish, loaches (they grow slow) They all look nice. Thats what we got in ours, and then some.

Yeah, it's a pretty good deal. I was shopping around for a 125 for a couple of months and they were all between $600-$630. Then Big Al's had an end of the year sale and sold me the tank, stand, lid, lights, gravel, and background for $449.99 (came to $476.99 with tax).
What kind of filters did you get with it?
