Great fish for 55 gal

[grantaking]

I was just wondering about everyones opinions on the best and most interesting single fish for a 55 gal. I do not want africans because they are usually not big enough for a good centerpiece fish and they grow too slowly. I was kind of leaning torward the central american kind.

How about a texas cichlid? they get decent sized and are very pretty as adults....also maybe a black belt cichlid....both would do great as single specimen species tank candidates

Fahaka Puffers get way too large for a 55g, they can reach 18''+. I would go for a Jack Dempsey or Green Terror.
