110-150 gallon tank

[Butterflyfishboy]

I am considering moving my 50 gallon tank and getting a max 6 ft x 2 ft 2 ft tank.

I want to know if my initial idea is possible before I start. I would like a birchir, Oscar, severum and a plec/catfish at least.

Do you think that would be OK in a tank that size? If so does anyone have any tips to make the water changes a bit easier for a tank that size. Or anyone have any similar fish together with any general tips?

I've never kept anything big, but some members here do have large tanks. Hopefully they respond

@simonas has some very impressive large tanks with amazing-looking fish, they may have some advice on stocking/sizes, etc

For the fish you mentioned, the bigger the tank the better. Typical 110g are either 4 or 5 feet long…too small. Common 125g are 6’, but only 18” wide. Ok but If you can manage a 6”x2” wide, that would be much better. Even that is bordeline for a large óscar, large severum and large pleco. Height may be a bit less important. Good luck!

Thank you. Makes sense to get the biggest I can fit there. No messing about upgrading later
