new tank

[dolphinstj]

I am working on an idea for a 100+ gallon tank. At the most it will be 125. I am thinking about 20 tiger barbs, 5 pictus catfish, 1 firemouth cichlid, 2 algae eaters (SAE's or pleco) and 1 other show fish maybe a severum or another firemouth. What do you think?

Sounds nice. That second firemouth would be nice, their monogomous behavior makes up so much of their great character. You may need to start off with a few extras to ensure that you do get a nice compatable pair though.

Even with the added firemouth I'd still get the Severum. One big, slower moving fish in tank can have a beautiful effect, especially amongst small active fish like the barbs.
