The fish in his avatar looks just like my 3 year old Silver dollars! Both of mine have black on their tails. I do agree that the ck and the pleco will get way too big for the 35 gallon. My 2 plec's (common) are 15" and are in a 125 gallon.
If the 100 gallon is empty move your current stock list to the bigger tank.
As for what to keep in the 35, what do you like? It would make an awesome community tank for some small tropical fish like tetras and such.
its definatley a pacu
 
maybe it depends on the specific species of SD's then. ive had over 15 silver dollars in my time and never seen one with black edging on the tail AND faint black spots on the body like his, although i have had spotted SD's. i also came to the pacu conclusion considering the SD in the background looks nothing like the one in the foreground, which to me looks like a pacu. but ive been wrong before.:)

according to your signature you have 2 SD's, a pleco and a ck. first the fish in your avatar looks like a pacu, not a silver dollar. silver dollars dont have black edging on their tails. so a pacu, a pleco(im assuming common) and a ck will all get much to big for your 35 and your 100g thats also in your sig. that is empty. there are 1000s of fish that will fit in a 35g but were not going to start naming off random fish without even knowing what you like.

oh i didnt noticed that, the pacu i have on my avatar is from along time ago. i dont carry pacu cuz they are messy so i just thought of putting my recent pacu as a pic.so sry for the misunderstanding

Some Silver dollars belonging to the genus Mylossoma can have black on their caudal fin, but they also can get well over a foot long, so they would still require bigger digs.

Edwin, I would recommend Mikrogeophagus ramirezi (German Blue/Gold Ram). They like warm water that is a bit acidic (>80*F and 6.4-7 ph). They are very amusing fish and have the appetite and behavior of a fish 5 times their size. There is also an abundance of information on the web about them.

Another option would be a setup for a couple of schools of tetras. Or maybe some dwarf gouramis and platys. GL

thanks for the advice. i will try it
 
okay for everybody who been askin, the fish on my avatar is defintly a pacu, i just posted that picture because it was the only 1 i had on my comp. sry for the misunderstanding.
 
OOPS, my bad~~~!! Looked like a SD to me because of the light coloring.
Never had a Pacu so I guess I didn't know the difference. Sorry.
 
dont sweat it dude its kewl , we all made mistakes like that .lol

:D

I hope the Clown Knife is going into the 450G. It gets far to big for the 100G.

i was thinking about it, but i will wait until he abit bigger, cuz the 450g have huge fish and im afraid he will be eaten. lol
so ya i will until he reaches at least 10"
