Tank Size?

4x2.5x2.5 feet length height and width upgrading to a 7x4x3 in a month or 2...

it would definately need to be be big fish. for now i wouldn't add anything
in the 7 footer, you could put congo tetras or bala sharks perhaps.

Can't speak from personal experience, but from what I've read Silver Dollars are a common choice. Maybe larger rainbowfish would also work...?

clown loaches like groups

 

[yvez9]

clown loaches would have a hard time. they're usually very small when purchased and grow quite slow, about an inch a year. they would become oscar food in no time

 

[Davo86]

Silver Dollars, Tinfoils, and Silver Sharks are pretty much your only suitable dithers for cichlids of that size and nature.

 

[matchstickman47]

i suppose clown loaches would just be food...

synodontis multies get big and love groups
