Believe it or not, a 120 is too small for an adult Arowana. That being said, take into consideration the adult size of anything you plan to add. My advice would be an oddball tank, something I'd like to do one day. A Black Ghost, freshwater ray, and a few nonaggressive cichlids would be cool.

Actually i've plan to buy a silver aro that's 3-4inch and keep it until it reach it's adult and sell it.. But if i really love that fish then i'm going to upgrade 200-300g fish tank.. Btw , let's back to the topic.. "nonaggressive cichlids" can you list them ? Sorry , i appreciate your reply

There are many large cichlids that can be kept together provided they have ample space. My favorite cichlids are Severums, Chocolate Cichlids, Quetzals, Black Belts, Green Terrors, Geophagus Brasilinsis, Satanoperca Jurupari, Convicts, and Firemouths.

I Just back from my local pet store to see if they sell any cichlid.. I Saw that they sell Convicts cichlid and Electric Yellow cichlids.. which one you think should i put inside my fish tank ? which of them would stand better , easier with Bichirs and silver aro ?
Now that you have specific species in mind, why not do some internet searches on those particular species to learn about the requirements for the fish, including compatible tank mates and tank sizes.

Electric Yellow cichlids are African and require a higher pH. Convicts can handle themselves for a small cichlid. 1 male want a ton of babies.
I also fail to see how either of these cichlids can be considered monsters due to their lack of size.
I agree with you authmal. But in the case of the convict, what it lacks in size it makes up for with its attitude. They can really put a hurting on a fish if that fish does something the convict doesnt like. Also, i dont think a tank of this size can really house a monster community. Id shoot for either one monster fish or upgrade to a much larger tank.
