i have a 110 i am getting ready to transfer my fish in. i havve a 55 but its to small for the fish i has they are growing like crazy in there. i am asking will the 110 be big enough for my fish? i have an arowana 7" shovel nose tiger cat, one toad fish, 9" marble bichir 9" 3 rope fish 9,10,13 inches one brisle nose pleco 4" two Clown Loaches 4" one fire eel 8" two very large angel fish (don't know how to measure them) one african Butterfly fish one yellow fin chalceus 6" and then finally last but not least i have a big Albino clown knife and he is about 15 " and eats anything he can catch. the knife is at my cuz house he has a 200+ custom tank full of cichlids i want to get my knife back because the knife seems to be beating up and eating all his fish. only fish he doesn't mess with is his 7" green terror. will all these fish beable to work in a 110 tank? and also will the knife be ok with the Arrow? or should i let the arrow get bigger before i get him with the Knife??
 
i think a 110 is too small to house all of those fish. ands thats b4 u even throw that huge clown knife in there.
 
the knife and the aro will easily outgrow that 110.

EDIT: tiger shovelnose will also way outgrow that tank.
 
the tiger shovelnose will also get way too big for that 110.

it is hard to estimate the time in which they can live in the 110 . growth varies from fish to fish...based on diet, water quality, temps, etc... how big is the aro and the cat right now?
 
I have them believe it or not in a 55 the aro is about 7" and growing fast I got him at about 4 inches about two months ago. the shovel I got in April and was only about 4" and now is about 9" easy. and the bichir is about the same as the cat. I feed them blood worms and brime shrimp but they seem to like the floating and sinking carnivor pellets. And every 4 days I treat them to 50 rosy's and 50 ghosts

You should really consider researching a little about he fish you have. Obviously you have no idea how big your fish get, which also leads me to believe you have no idea of the needs of each individual fish.

Four of the fish you have listed will get well over 30", possibly close to 40". If considering the heatlh and well being of the fish, your gonna need at least a 375gallon tank with the demensions of 96" long, 36" deep and 24" high. Better get the 110g(looks as if the 55g is already full). Need to consider if you can provide the right size tank or get rid of the aro, knife, shovelnose and the eel.
 
you are going to need 1 monster tank 350-400gals or 2 220+ gal tanks for all those fish...
