Hello all!

[background=rgb(250, 250, 250)]I decided to start again on my aquarium after a year of success and[/background][background=rgb(250, 250, 250)] sold most of my fish, except for an adult marbled angel (Cant sell my 2 year old baby) and a pair of juvenile discus (Had them for a month), I recently upgraded to a 200 gallon from a 70 gallon. [/background]

[background=rgb(250, 250, 250)]Currently, it has 4 angels, (Including the marble), the discus pair, a blue acara, a golden severum, a pair of german blue rams, and a bolivian ram. (Yes, I'm a south american cichlid fan)[/background]

The aquarium still looks a little empty though... Does anyone know any good tankmates? Possibly those that wont get eaten, and at the same time, gives the aquarium more activity?

Also, is there any way to calm a very angry discus fish down? The discus owns the tank and has scared most of the fish (Except the old adult angel)?
 
Sounds like you need some dithers!

In a nice big tank like that your have a pretty broad choice and can get some of the larger Characins around quite comfortably. If your not attached to your plants Silver Dollars are an obvious one, spotted dollars are nice. A fair few of the Headstanders would work, Annostomus Ternetzi, Spotted and Marbled headstanders would work great :) Hemiodus would be great and then larger disk tetras like Bleeding Heart Tetras.

PS: get some pics up!!!
 
More Discus!
From what I have read, theyshould be kept in groups of 6+to try and avoid this sort of aggression.

A shoal of SA Tetras will look good too.
