i don't have the red devil yet, but they grow up to a foot long

I personally will go for bigger species that of the Brachyplatystoma family

but won't they outgrow a 75 gallon aquarium?

I would suggest any of the medium-large Synodontis species, but like always who knows how the red devil will do with it. My personal favorite is S. angelicus. S. Ocellifer is nice too, and they can also be kept in groups, less territorial then most other synodontis species. Anyways, goodluck! Also give the cat many hiding spots if the red devil is ever in a bad mood and just wants to kill anything that moves.

Get a big ass channel cat and cross that whole growing out the tank bridge when you get there

i have a albino channel catfish with my red devil and other cichlids and he does just fine, he is an ornery sucker. he doesnt take any stuff from the other cichlids but the red devil will give him a bit every now and again, but its nothing that really concerns me.
