Would this work?

Would this stocking plan be alright for a future 100gal tank?

1 Oscar
2 JD
2 firemouths
1 convict
1 common pleco

And would these fish be too aggresive for the firemouths?

That tank would be incredibly overstocked once the fish started to get some size on them IMO.

I would cut it down to 1 JD. IMO, I don't think the Firemouths will stand a chance against the Cons & JD.

Agreed with the above. Firemouths may be nasty, but don't stand a chance against the others when they get big.

Good luck!

Ok, so how about 1 oscar, 1 Jd, 1 convict and 1 common pleco.

I would do 1 oscar, 2 jd's and 2 cons..drop the plec as most of the others will keep the bottom clean..not every tank needs a pleco

A standard 90 only has a 48x18 footprint. I can't imagine all those fish getting along in that space; JMO. I agree that the pleco should be out of the equation.

What are the dimensions of your tank? When you say you want two of certain fish, are you talking about a male/female pair?

Thanks everyone. I plan on making everything with my dad so it will be 2mX 1mX70cm.
Still not sure how much volume it can take. I think I wont add the pleco or convicts because I got lots of convicts already and I dont think mine will stand up to an oscar.
How about: 1 oscar, 2 Jd( Male or female) and 1 severum or 1-2 Jewels.
