The tank is 380l and the ph is 6.5. Most of the time and the hardness is 80

Flowerhorn although that would be the only contents of your tank...

Probably not from what ive read you MIGHT be able to get away with a peaceful pair with loads of hiding places. Definitely not two males. Itd be a single fish i think

If i had that size tank id either go for a really cool rock layout and cichlids or go for an absolutely massive community...

As ypur tank is mature and if it has loads of plants you could have like 15-20 cories, 25 cardinal tetras, some other bottom feeders.... Maybe a large haram of peaceful dwarf cichlids like cockatoos (plenty of territory space. Could have 1 male and 4 females), whatever.

It has potential to look so cool. A large shoal of cardinals would look immense. And everyone loves cories....

I think this would also be nice for you as its completely different to your current setup.

Its a pity more people havent commented. The experienced guys should be able to help you with a beautiful community tank.

It might just be that people don't want to suggest much because we dont know what you like. You say you are getting rid of Oscars...why is this? Is it the care? The size? Just don't want them anymore? You want to branch out into other things?

As for branching out.... preferred substrate type? Live plants? Fake plants? Type of filter and flow in tank? Big fish or small fish? Really...it would be more helpful if YOU researched some fish that you might like to do and then post that list with your water parameters again and people can tell you what works and what doesn't.

If it was me I would do a humongous planted community...i love small fish though. You may not. It seems like you could have a ton of options with that size of a tank. You can get very creative if you wanted to!

I do agree though that a huge community would look great

I wasn't offended by it. Lol. Just making an observation in maybe why other people aren't really replying. So...maybe if the OP answers some of my questions more people may join in! Lol. Cuz like I said...big tank...tons of options! I'd love one that big. Lol.
