Hi, 240 is same as my tank and there are quite a lot of options for you but the hardest thing to remember when you have this size of tank is, its not a massive tank its just a good sized tank I always wish that I could have bigger fish than I should but its a bit tough sometimes but heed my advice and stay away from anything that gets over 8 inches, but still at 8 inches be careful with them that big but IMO thats a good rule to stock by.

In my tank Ive gone for a few larger cichlids that get to 5-7 inches (depends on gender). But in all honesty I wish I had stuck with dwarf acaras because they are my favorites like laetacara and krobia but not to everyones taste.

Or the other thing I want to try next is Africans. But there are quite a lot of options for you depends on what you want to try Do you want schools or feature fish? Catfish? Plecs? Planted or Hardscaped?

Hope thats helped

Ah right I see, I thought the tank was empty I would listen to Davo he knows his stuff and I have to say I agree with what he is saying
