What is the best option for keeping 2 species (one pair or 1m+2f from each) into a 200 l tank, between cacatuoides, agassizi and macmasteri?
If the most aggressive are agassizi, the best option will be cacatuoides with macmasteri?
Thanks.

Actually, most experienced hobbyists find males of A. macmasteri the more aggressive, territorially, of the group. Any 2 would work together - if - the tank is properly decorated to provide adequate territories for each fish. This means avoid line-of-sight between territories as much as possible.
