In the next week or two I am going to buy a 55 gallon rectangular tank. I have a 29g with african cichlids and wanted to get some ideas of some fish to stock my 55g. I want some medium or large fish with color and are kind of hardy. I have about $100 to spend on fish. I need ideas quick cause I am going on vacation pretty soon (32 days).
 
Well you would have a lot of choices. I would say sp. that stay under 10".
What are you looking to keep? S single sp.? Or community?

You could get anything in the cryptos family:convicts,cutteri,hrp,panamensis.for SA try blue acaras that includes a few types,or keyholes

Geos are nice in a tank that size as they grow really slow there is a ton of variety but IMO the red head geo are the nicest looking in terms of color and are available at many lfs.
