Looks like it will be a nice pond when finished .
A few medium/ large Catfish and/ or a few Ray's , a few P'Bass along with a Silver Awo' is what i woud do and then maybe something else like an Oscar or something simlar , but it really up to you .
More pictures please when you get it started .

update**
had a whole new idea on how to build this thing... i took my plans to my old drafting instructor and told me that my plans arent that good. it would collapse due to the weight of the water and the pressure it will push to the wall. so i asked him.. would stackin the 2x4 studs be better?? he said it would cuz its way much sturdier than my old plans....new dims are- 75x53x22......... well enough with the talk. PICS!!!!!!!!!!!
first things first...
the box ( outline )
here you can get the idea of stacking up the 2x4 studs
me working my butt off
my brother acting dumb... lol
as a reference, he is 5'10"

I can help you with this. Right now I have a 1,000 Gallon pond, building a 200 Gallon pond, AND the other one is a 8,000 Gallon pond already built just needs to be set up. If anyone could help you I think I qualify. Message me if you have any questions or anything you want to ask.
But in the end you do your pond the way you want to, because it's your project I can throw ideas your way.
