OK i need some suggestions on what monster are good for a 55G i am in the progess of preparing my tank and i have been doing alot of research what fish are best for these since i am not to sure i wanted to buy a oscar but a 55G might not suit him so suggestion's we be welcomed thanks.
 
Looking for one fish or quite a few? Eventually upgrading or for life in the 55g?
 
I will have this tank for awhile about 5+ more months i am still looking i am really interested in getting some nice fish but i am no sure what i want so yer it is a rectangle tank but umm yer.
 
you could get away with a few african cichlids if u'r into those fish on the link u posted. just get some lace rock and sweet lookin gravel, sand, crushed shells, whatever you like, and let the colorful fish form their territories.
 
not a prob...what kind of fish tickle your fancy? i guess i should have asked first
 
At this point in time anything that you can think of that is good in a 55G but it has to be a monster i think anything under 20cm will do good does that help?? i was thinking of getting a pair of silver shark.
 
silver tip sharks get pretty large and actually require salt water when fully mature.
 
if you go with the african tank you can always throw in a few synodontis cats. they are pretty sweet and can get upwards of 12". could also do some SA/CA cichlids and cats(my personal favorites).
