I am thinking of gettting atleast a 125gallon soon and mixing 2 african pikes, 2 red tail barricudas, 2 datnoids, 1 silver arowana, and a teacup stingray... Will this work if i get most of the fish about the same size??
 
What is the footprint of the tank? 72" by 24" and shallow? 72" by 18" and deeper?
I forsee a couple problems. Most fish will do better either with just one of a species or at least three, pairs tend to squabble, also the redtail barracuda will eventually be outgrown and due to their slender body shape they are potenial meals for other large predators.
 
the aro, dats, and ray will outgrow most 125 gallons
 
i know they will probably out grow them but for a year or 2 i will probably be ok.... i am willing to upgrade to an even bigger tank eventually.
