You could try adding a dozen assorted african cichlids to the 120 and see if the buttikoferi will let them share the tank. Maybe add a fancy pleco to the 150. I've seen a buttikoferi with kenyi cichlids before, so i'm guessing it can either be a really nice looking mix, or extremely expensive feeder fish for the buttikoferi.

the butti and the midas will fill the 120 up to max capacity when they are both full grown. also the buttikoferi lives in nuetral water unliek other africans.
