stocking sujestions 150 UK gallon / 190 US gallon

[Richard]

ok i`m looking at buying 2 72x24x24 tanks (150 uk gallon / 190 us gallon) and i`m after stocking idea`s

1 tank i would want just severums and a large common plec

how many severums could i stock in there?

the other tank i want to put 2 oscars i currently have in there but what else could i put with them?

i`m thinking maybe the folowing but unsure of agression the oscars i have at the moment are around 4" and the other fish i would get i would get around the 3" to 4" size mark so they can grow up together.

jaguar
blood parrot fish (definatly not dyed)
blue acara
green terror
red devil
other large ciclids

i know some of those may not be suitable to be in a tank with oscars but what could i put in the tank with them ? doesnt matter if its not on the list i put as i am open to sujestions

many thanks for all your imput 2 those who do reply

u could put alot of serverums in a tank that size, they get to ten inches so im thinkin like 5 would be enough, and as fr the oscars, i would just get oscars and a big pleco as they would be happier that way, but u could put osme big parrot fish with them i guess

There are some fantastic cichlids out there that are not so common. I'm seeing new ones all the time. I'm sure VIP, or Juan will be along with some suggestions, but for now, check out VIP's thread here, there are 3 or 4 fantastic Cichlids on there that I'm pretty sure would go well in that tank with the Oscars.
BTW, where are you getting these tanks from, and how much are you paying if you don't mind me asking, it's only becasue I'm after a big tank, and don't want to pay through the nose for it!!
