I have a 180 gallon that I am going to begin cycling tomorrow. so it is now time to give some thought as to what in the world i am going to put in this monster tank. My first thought was maybe an arrowana and a ray but im not sure if the tank is large enough for a full grown arro. then i thought maybe a dovii but again i dont think the tank will be large enough. However maybe a pair of jags or devils is possible. Decisions, decisions, good thing i have a few weeks to figure this out. So what would you do with a 180?
suggestions for 180 gal.

so you can always do something like that as well on a smaller scale.

I would think an arro would definately fit inside of yoru 180. I had a huge 26" boy in a 100 gallon, and he was very healthy, and very friendly.
Arro's are adorable

Thank god I have some time to decide. Everytime I think I figure out what i want to stock, I change my mind and start all over again. Oh well, the torture of having a large tank, lol,
the arowana will work for a good while i kept my 42" silver in a 180 for years before i got my 450.
