i would suggest a tinfoil barb. they get up to ten inches and are pretty communal.

ya, you have good fish so far. some fish that can get a good size and r peacefull r balla shark.. they look cool and r peacefull. i work with fish alot and they r realy cool fish. angle fish can get to be a good size as well but some times u can run across a mean one.

I would stay away from bala sharks. Size wise (14"), yes, one would fit in a 108 gallon tank. However, they are social fish and prefer to be in groups of at least 3. They are also very active so having 3 in a 108 gallon tank could cause problems.

I would stay away from giant gouramies. They get really big and aren't as colourful as many of the other gouramies. On the plus side, they are very hardy fish who will eat almost anything provided (they can be found around sewage outfalls for pig farms in SE Asia). Pearl gouramies sound like a good choice though.

You might want to think a little smaller because big fish can take a lot of care and aren't good if you are often very busy.
