Yes, well, just make sure you get an arowana *nudge nudge wink wink*
but yes, stuff like rays wouldnt be a good starter choice.
are you planning on making it planted? if so watch out cause monster fish can uproot plants by swimming by them and pleco's are notorious for eating plants.
Perhaps maybe also a few larger parrot fish? those look pretty decent for display and are pretty hardy for starters. But I assume your going more for a show tank.
As for reading, forums like this, you can't get a much better source for information, the guys here have personal experience on their side, and besides, what book can reply to your specific questions
