How much fish In a 125 gallon tank

[Benthebassmaster]

Can a gt, jd, Oscar and a Bichir be in a 125 gallon tank. Also if their is anymore fish to keep with it what would it be

I would drop the Oscar. Needs different water than the jd and gt and could max put a 125 on it’s own.
You could get a convict (and maybe another small cichlid depending on what others say) with the two and some dithers.

Which Cichlid do you want to keep the most? All the fish listed are from different locations with different requirements central america, south america, and africa.

ya drop the oscar I mean that tank is heavy stocked if not overstocked I need to do weekly 80-90% wcs forjust my pair of oscars in a 125g. I would drop the oscar and add some fire mouths or convicts just my 2c

What is your water hardness? that will decided the stocking region.

Actually both Oscar and gt are South America. Oscars are from Amazon (soft and acidic). Gts are from west of the Andes (hard and alkaline). Jds are from Mexico (hard and alkaline).

I really like green terrors so yeah what are fish that can be kept with them

anything that requires hard water but we really need to know your water hardness first

I don’t have the tank yet so I can have any hardness you would suggest

Have you considered a bichir tank? You could keep a single medium sized cichlid as a mid water swimmer.A guy I know keeps a green terror in 120 that''s overloaded with bichirs lol , pretty sure he does 2 50% Wcs a week though.
