Somewhere between the betta and the Oscar, fins disappear. I know in saltwater there are some great giants with ludicrous finnage. But most large FW fish are somewhat fin-deficient. Know of any large (at least 8", larger is better) FW fish with long-flowing fins? List 'em!

Goldfish
Veil-tail Oscar
Butterfly koi
 
Geophagus Daemon.
Geophagus Tapajos(males)
Angel fish(they get about 8")
Black Fin and Balla Sharks have fair sized finnige.
Flower Horns
Even certain strains of Clown loaches.
 
Longfinned crappies, rainbow trouts and common carps have found but they are very rare, just a fluke.
 
What about things with tail streamers? Like a Tigrinus cat or something. That count?
 
Butterfly Koi
 
Also threadfin rainbows, furcata rainbows, swordtails, veil tail/longfin oscar, killifish, +1 for bgk, angelfish would be the prime example, I've kept angels with oscars, jack dempseys, and datnoids before so it can be done.
