Depends on what type of fish you are into. I would go with a predator or throw a few Cichlids in there.
Hiya churnHS, welcome to MFK.
There are a lot of chouces, just depends on what kind of fish you like. 5-6 rpbs, a community' shelldwellers, one gulper cat, lots of choices.
It would be easier to list no-nos like more than one rhom, p-bass, aros, rtcs, pacu, lmb. channal cats, or gar.

I would make it a planted tank with bichir and ctenopoma..
BTW that stainless steel setup is awesome looking.

Did you get the corner bowfront 72? If so, those are bad ass. I recommend a nice shoal of Bucktooth Tetras (Exodon paradoxus).churnheadsilvers said:
Those stainless steel tanks are very slick..
Ever thought of doing a 'silver themed' tank.. Perhaps a shoal of red-hook silver dollars, a small group of pictus cats or columbian sharks, and a single silver arowana? Of course you would have to move fish once they outgrow the tank, but it could make a beautiful temporary display that would be quite active and impressive.

I like the Exodon sugestion....they have been one of the most interesting fish I've kept. They like a deep sand bed wih a little river rock and driftwood.....and of course a few live plants.....makes for a real nice natural looking tank.
