Which 100 gallon for pictus catfish?

Do pictus and severums get along ok?? Pictus are awfully hyper. I wouldn't think they would get along well. I've kept both kinds of fish, but never together, so I really don't know.

I'd probably put a school of rainbows with the pictus. Rainbows hang out mid to upper tank. And they are as busy as the pictus, so I don't think they would mind the pictus.

I was wondering the same thing, I was thinking it would be the corydoras catfish and betta effect in my 29 gallon (my betta hated the 6 cories with a passion, far too active and annoying in his opinion). I'll look into rainbows or giant danios or something :)
 
I like the idea of a pair of gouramis for a center piece.

You don't think the active pictus would drive them nutso? It's between them (opaline), or blood parrots (yes I know what some people think, I personally love them) if possible :D
 
Well looks like the land lord has an idea of how much fish tanks weigh, looks like the 120 gallon is out for now (and anything remotely "big"). :( Thanks for suggestions though! :)
