We need it to look good and be easy to maintain.
A tank with with live plants would be hard to maintain considering the size of the tank.
Option 1-Natives: Walleye, Rock Bass, Perch, Sunfish
Option 2-Koi: Just Koi
Option 3-Monster Tropical: Obtain big, relatively peaceful fish that are too big for current owners to maintain anymore.....Oscars and other Cichlids, Arowana, Gars, Knifefish, Bottom dwellers etc. and just get them as they become available.

Yea option 3 here too .. Always soo many big Oscars and Gourami's available because of getting too big. And they are at their best when fullsize. 
Option A) I would get a Marbled Sail-fin catfish, a school of Pbass, a couple of Asian Aros, a Tigrinus, a Fire Eel, some large Dats, Maybe a Polypterus endlicheri congicus, definitely a ray.
Option B) I would get 10 Caribe, 5 Ternetzi, 5 Piraya, 15 RBPs, 30-40 Exodons, and 10 Trahira with plenty of Driftwood for them to hide out in. This Tank setup would be sweet.
If you can drop 22k on the tank, you better get something cooler than just a school of bala sharks and clown loaches.
You need to
Koi would be a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge waste

I still think you need to go salt. You have got the money, go for it. It would be the best captive reef ever.
