I have a 200G tank and i have been thinking about restocking it...

The first 2+ years it housed a bunch of Polypterus +a few other predators with them (ATF, clown knife for ex.) and some american cichlids at one point...
I recently sold them all and filled it up with Malawi mbunas, the tank is full of life and colorful but im not sure its my kind of fish and something i would like to keep for a long time.

If i would get rid of the africans i was wondering if it would be fun to get one big fish instead of a group of smaller fish but havent come up with any good ideas yet.
Can you fellow MFK´s give me some ideas of a fish to make the 200G a
single fish tank?? I would also consider a pair and maybe 3-4 if its something exciting.

The tank is 7x2x2feet.
 
A breeding group of rostratus would look good they love open water and grow to over 10 inches or more.
 
a Fahaka Puffer would fill the 200G nicely.. or you could do a shoal of South American Puffers
 
arowana!
