I am converting my 270 gallon(also has 40 gallon sump) to a cichlid tank. Sadly it is not 8 feet long instead it is 72 inches long 36 high and 24 wide which makes me a little hesitant as far as stocking big fish goes.
Must haves:
2 chocolate cichlids
2 Severums
1 fire eel
I would like to have, but I am open to not getting:
2 threadfin acara
6 angelfish
Now here is where I am having trouble. There are two other fish I know I want; another big cichlid and a pike. I know with my current list I have a fair amount of space left to work with, but I still want to pick the right species of course.
Edit: It keeps cutting off the rest of this post, so the rest is in the next comment.
