in a house
I have a 120gallon tank its fully cycled and everything is good.... as of now i have

a 6" red oscar and a 7" pleco...

My sis said shes gona bring me home some Pbass from her bfs house but i dont know how big or anything...

But i have no clue what to put in my tank... I have 3 plants and a bunch of flat stones stacked to make a bunch of places for stuff to chill in and a big peice of wood in the tank so all in all theres still alota spcae for fish.... Any suggestions would help alot thanks..
 
Pbass will quickly outgrow that size tank.

And your oscar could quite easily rule the whole tank if he wanted. I have a green terror, pike cichlid (C. Proteus) and oscar in my 125g which is my fahaka puffers home.

Maybe try some other cichlids like sevrums, geophagus??

What about a bichir?
 
Yea i new the Pbass would outgrow it :(.... The bichir sounds like a good idea but my lfs dont sell them .... :( keep them comming!

I was thinking Maybe a catfish, a top water fish and maybe some middle level fish
 
Kk.... well big change of plans all i have in there right now is the pleco.... lol..

My Pbass my sis forgot so im not gona bother with and the oscar my friends buying off me..

so my tanks completely open
 
I kinda dont want majorly aggressive fish, I'm Probably gona get a catfish to go with the pleco but outher than that i got no clue :(
 
go with two motoro rays for your bottom level.2-4 lepord discus for mid.and maybe a diff chichlid or two for top.that will still be a little crowded for that tank.poop is your main factor
 
Hmm.. Only thing i dont like about rays is im gona have to take my gravel and put sand and remove some stuff.... cuz i dont like rays unless there on sand... I might go with a jag,catfish,pleco, maybe a bichir or 2 and maybe a pike?
