You could also go with an African Cichlids tank. As a new cichlids keeper probably be best to go with an all male Peacock tank. Get around ten individuals, all male's no doubles, a couple Synodontis cats.
Or a African river one with Jewel cichlids, Congo tetras, Syno cats, a couple African butterfly fish.
