new 67g stock ideas please help

[lach]

The tank is 48x18x18
set up and ready to go
filtration is eheim 2213 and AC110
ready to go
Ive kept texas and trimac and gts and jds in the past so im trying to think of something different
maybe an eartheater community or dwarfs
thinking about planting the tank as well
give me some ideas to spitball
any other larger sa/ca that would work well?

I like the eartheater idea. I'm working on setting my 75 back up for a small group of Geo. abalios and some other SA fish. I'm planning on having simple aquascaping with just pool filter sand and some driftwood. I'm also considering some floating plants like water lettuce, but I want to keep the bottom pretty open for the Geos. to be able to sift the sand as much as they want

Discus do well in a planted tank. Maybe two discus and some dwarf cichlids would work.

i have the high silica pool sand which is white. but im thinking of changing it up to the river sand with some more driftwood and maybe a few plants

I would go with a dwarf setup, with perhaps the centerpiece being a pair of small acaras...then again, they can theoretically be mixed with some geos, so you can do a little of both
