A 55gal on steroids?! No thank you, better off with a 125 or 150 for the amount of space it will take up.

I would only see this useful for a coral frag tank really, but maybe that's just me. Weird tank size

Ok, so the tank is
43 long X 22 wide X 24 deep
90 US Gallons
It's the longest that will fit in the space I have for it beside the fire place in my living room. It's the biggest I can find within that length. The cabinet matches the other furniture in my home, so my wife likes it...
So, now that's out the way, what do you think to my single Sajica? I would LOVE this final addition to round off my stock list.

Those dimensions come out to 98 gallons are you sure it's not 48x18x26?
Skip the sajica really doesn't have a place with that stock

Personally I would do the ellioti, some large tetras and maybe a small catfish or the keyholes and bolivians with some nice tetras, but I'm not too keen on mixing cichlids from different regions.

Now I'm just throwing this out there, but how does 2 pictus, a pair of ellioti and a school of congo tetras sound?

Well it had to be readily available and big enough to avoid consumption by the pictus, my other option was bucktooths but they chew on shiny fish.
It took a lot for me to even toss those in there I hate african tetras.

Thank you that's the one I was trying to think of before but von rio kept popping into my head.

Well there's no Central American tetra in the hobby so you'd be putting South American tetra in with them anyway. That being said the African tetra requirements are very close to the South American tetras.

I was mostly joking lol
Swordtail would be sorta closer, but store bought are typically hybrids

They in fact are Helleri and Maculatus cross.

Thank you all for your input.
I should stress that while a strictly authentic stock list appeals to me, I'm not aiming for anything resembling a biotype or similar. That's a future project.
I've been reading you guys threads with interest and envy and I know you're pretty experienced and serious about this - but I just want to make sure the stock list works in such a way that the fish aren't killing one another. I've been careful with sizes, temperaments, water requirements etc and I think a Sajica would be fine and that the others would be too. though not an authentic room mate for SAs a CA is close enough by my reckoning.
The thing is, if I'm going authentic, I'll do it all or nothing. I'm gonna have the wrong wood, rock, sand and at least SOME wrong fish. One day I'll come on here and tell you all about the perfect biotype I'm putting together and I'm sure you can help me massively with that, but not for now.
So, would the addition of a Sajica cause any actual "problems"?
Please forgive me. At least I'm not using pink sand and Blood Parrots...!
