my LFS just got in 2 red tail barracudas, i'm hooked! man those things are awesome! i got to feed them, very imperssive show. they were lightning fast. i figure i'm gonna get about 6 of them for my 125, but what else can i put in there with them?

i really want to get a black ghost knife, a pictus cat, and either a tire track eel or a fire eel. doable?

i really want a clown loach, too. any help would be appreciated. thanks!

You'd need a very large tank, at least 8x4 and strong filtration for the fish you mentioned.

for the clown knife i would, but the barracuda, from what i've read, will get up 15" max. so i think a 125 would be ok for them. i really like the clown knife, but i think i'm gonna hafta pass him up, i can't go much bigger at the moment than a 125.

The 'cudas would be fine in a 125. If you plant it, with real plants, they'll feel right at home. The Clown Knife would get big enough to eat those 'Cudas.
