Would it be paoosible to put two FW baracudas in a 90 gallon? Also, is there and cichlids that would be great along side of the baracudas. Jack dempsey, red devil, jaguar, texas are some I was wondering. Possible 3 or 4 jewels? Thank you for any ideas. Just trying to plan for the future. The FW baracuda is very intriging to me. :flex:
 
You could start the baracuda off in the 90g but you would eventually need to move them to a minimum of a 125 as they need a tank with a 5 foot length minimum really to cater for their bursts of speed when hunting.

FW baracuda are very shy fish that dont do well with aggressive tankmates, my last two were killed by a leporinus! Good tankmates are fish like silver dollars and medium sized catfish, if they are kept with fish that spook them they will try to leave the tank by jumping either damaging themselves badly against the hood or ending up dried out on the carpet.
