Hey guys new here just curious at to what you guys think would be cool to put in my newly setup 135 g tank? Already have a 12" Oscar to go in but maybe something else to spice it up. I am upgrading from a 55 gal so my Oscar should be much happier.
 
In this thread a guy is considering fish for his 55 gal. His eyes are bigger than his tank and a lot of great dieas are being kicked around that would work in a larger tank, such as you 125 gal.

Take the info there and customize it to your liking and repost what you are thinking.

I liked the ideas thrown around in the other thread but I was looking for more of the harder to find species of cichlids. Average size maybe 6 or 7" so as to colour the tank nicely and not get eaten. I'm not an expert just thought someone might have an idea of something within those parameters. GT is beautiful but I heard they can be too aggressive for an Oscar.
 
I was thinking of quite a few here are the ones I like so far

Nandopsis uropthalmus
Nandopsis Istlanum
Telmatochromis Dhonti
Nandopsis Haitiensis
Neolamprologus Chrysti
Frontosa
Green Terror
Blue peacock
