No arrowana at all! They get WAAAAAAAAY too big for a mere 70g tank.
You also have too many angels.
Try cutting it back, I would say 4 angels.

Will never, ever, in a million years, work in a 70 gallon tank. Please research the arowana alone and you will see that it gets far too large for such a "small" tank.
In a 70 gallon tank I might go with 4 clown loaches, miscellaneous gouramis such as snakeskin, blue, platinum, gold, etc (maybe say 3 sets of 3 of them), and a bristlenose or other similar smaller pleco. Also could do an oscar tank. Or an awesome cichlid tank.

no arrowana, they need huge tanks.
do you just want a bunch small peaceful fish are a couple of large aggressive cichlids?
Arowana's are not that simple to look after. And they can't be put in a small tank. And not with all those small fishes. They will end up in his belly! I suggest you read up more on arowana's before getting one.

I wanted an African Butterflyfish, but i couldn't find them anywhere! i skipped Petco b/c theyre selection isnt as great, well i looked online a couple weeks ago at the fish they had, and they had African Butterflys, i was a lil mad lol.
