I got my new 55 and I've been thinking about what to put in it. I probably won't actually purchase anything until august (its cycling) but I'm having a blast planning. I know I want cichlids, and I know I want color. Lots of it. I read in another thread that someone with a 55 could pull off having a bunch of african cichlids... but... I'm new. I looked online and I get so confused when they talk about the different lakes they come from and all that. What species would I be looking at?? I have a few LFS around with decent cichlid selections but there won't be anything too rare. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

(I'll check this post tomorrow... I'm goin sleepy for now :) )

Oh... if theres anyway I could put a pair of 7'' senegal bichirs in with these fish that would be absolutely awesome. They need a bigger home... I don't know if thats possible though.
 
Thank you :) Im going to read it more in depth in a little bit. This is gonna be awesome.
