Just picked up a new 80g tank

[Vdub28t]

I just picked up my new 80G tank off CL today. I want to do a predator tank since I already have a 55g running as a community tank. Any ideas for stocking? I kinda like Jag's and I was looking at barracuda's but i'm worried about the tail rot issue.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks!

(I'll have pics up soon)

Does that work for you?

I forgot to add, the tank came with about 12 decent sized rocks, 2 large pieces of wood, 6-7 plants, 2 filters, heater, light, tons of food, nets, and sand for the bottom.

Along with all of this i just adopted his fish. I'm trying to ID them all but it looks to be 1 Pleco(no idea what kinda), 3 cichlid, and 5 tetras. Pretty decent deal for $250

I still have yet to clean up the tank and plan out the layout but im pretty pumped to say the least.

This is my 55G tank, it's a little crowded for the time being until I get the other one setup.

the pleco looks like a common to me, a bala shark, Tetras, and some african cichlids
