what should I stock in a 85 gallon and a 55 gallon. For the 85 gallon I want to keep some cichlids and eventually try at breeding them. And the 55 gallon I want to do a native tank. Stocking Ideas?
What to do with a 85 and 55 gallon?

What are the dimensions on the 85, that's a new size for me. As for the 55 and natives, you could have madtoms and maybe some smaller sunfish species. Killies are always cool if you can get them. If you wanted to use the bigger tank for natives a pickerel would be pretty cool.
85 does sound strange, never seen that before...but I'd still go with a SA cichlid community of acaras, festivums, and maybe sevs or chocolate
I forgot to get the dimensions, will in the morning. it was sold as a 75 gallon but then I measured it and even used the thickness of the glass. Its as long as my 55 gallon but taller and wider then the 55

i'm not sure of the native fish you have around there but bluegill and sunfish are more agressive than you would think. If u have them there...
agree, the sunfish tank will end up having to be managed similarly to say, similarly sized CA cichlids when it comes to aggression
