Tank mates for Severum Cichlid?

[Danomind]

I have 1 golden severum (female), and would like to get more top-swimming fish for my tank. What can go with them well that won't fight/kill my severum?

 

[krytan]

What size tank?

 

[Lupin]

~~Large tank- 1 beautiful golden severum cichlid (female), 4 Gyrinocheilus, 1 Black Ghost Knife Fish, 2 sharks, 5 naughty tiger barbs, 4 featherfin squeaker catfish

As krytan had previously asked, how big is it? You have other fish in it that will reach 6 inches and over.

 

[Danomind]

Tank size about 230 gallons

Assuming these 'sharks' are not iridescent sharks, you can add some Congo tetras, filament barbs or arulius barbs. Keep an eye on your BGK.

though they are not topdwellers, you could get flagtail catfish. they are relatives to corydoras, swim around the middle of the tank, and look awesome in a group.

Try a group of spanner barbs.
