Wow!
That tank would look superb with a living background wall of plants, perhaps achieved with anubias tied onto the one 3x2 egg crate square, with Java moss attached too; the height also means you could simply fill up to the 24 inch mark, then have a superb display for pothos in the last foot of space, helping to maintain your nitrates greatly!
Discus and angels as others mentioned, I'd also vote for
I thought I posted on Monster Fish Keepers???? hahaha
Thanks for the suggestions everyone so far. Discuss would look very nice, and also the plant idea convict360 would also be super. The tank is perfect for those things as well as a salt display but I am after something aggressive and big???
I originally thought I would get a tiger shovel/ red tail hybrid catfish but I think the dimensions just may not be ideal even though its a 140. I have Frontosa's that I am growing out, a big flowerhorn, a baby dovii, and 2 dozen texas cichlid babys all in their own tanks. All except the flowerhorn are way to small still.

Nice tank the trouble is the dimensions are wrong for large fish. We have a similar tank and Discus or Angels would be best. For plants I would put some giant val. Really wish I could think of a cool pred for your tank that reaches a medium size.
That'd make a nice Lepomis tank. A big pile of driftwood in the middle going the whole way up and some Pumpkinseeds, Longears, and Greens around it.
