id go with a colony of geophagus some redhooks and a flagtail

What Geo species you recommend? And wont a flagtail suck on my rays disc?

Since you have one clown loach already, I'd suggest several more. They are naturally a shoaling fish and tend to be more social and outgoing the more you have.

Yep, I think I'm going to grab 5 more.

Bichirs

Yea I had a collection of those before. They will be a hard sell. My wife hated all of them expect the Teu I had.

Filter wise I am still partial to the canisters because it is what I have always used. But I am familiar with sumps. But my clear choice of canister filter is Eheim 2260 or 2262 by far if you have the money.

I had a sump and canister setup before (FX5, 405, and 50 gallon sump on a 110 gallon tank)... So I can mix and match for superior filtration. I will look into the eheims.

I think a 75g would be plenty. Bigger is always better though.
