How would you stock a 2000 Gallon aquarium?

[Kevin007]

Since im looking at fairly small fishes, I'm talking about ignoring the 1"/Gallon general rule. I think 3000 small fishes total would be okay for the 2000 Gallon tank, no? 1000 Cardinals, 500 Rasboras, 500 Rummy noses and I'm already at 2k.

I would put a bunch of Freshwater Stingrays in it! Maybe with a few other fish as well. Maybe an eel too!

OMG! A river otter would be awesome!

1 kind of amazon eel, 1 arowana, and the rest are STINGRAYS at least 1 motoro sting and at least 1 leopoldi sting)

I'd try to make it a self sustaining tank, with the highest predator being a large ca/sa cichlid, or maybe a couple pike. I'd start with lots of rcs and try to get large amounts of inverts going in the tank to start with, and then add in a bunch of livebearers and a few convicts. After a month or two of nonstop breeding I'd add the pikes. The tank would be completely live plants too.
