Hi everybody I've set up a 75 gallon tank and would like to make it an American cichlid tank. I've had lots of ideas of what to put in it and I can't make up my mind here is some of the fish I'm thinking about

Angel fish
Red spotted gold severum( I have a breeding pair and would like to add 1 of the fry)
Electric blue Jack Dempsey
Festivum
Electric blue acara
Some kind of apistogramma

I obviously don't want all of these in the one tank I just can't decide which ones to get or which willwork together. Anymore suggestions would be great

I also have a striped Raphael catfish and would love to get a bichir I don't know if there is an appropriate bichir for a 75 gallon aquarium though

If you added a bichir Delhezi or Senegalus I personally would not place species with long trailing pectoral fins like Angel's and would take Apistogramma off the list.

Depending on how large the severum fry is, and how large the bichir is, you may want to wait until the sev fry gets some size on it before putting it in with the bichir. But I think a severum and an eb acara would be fine in a 75

The severum fry are still tiny I'll have to wait a bit before I can add the severum in for sure.
