Just Got A 75 Gal What Stocking Ideas Would Be Good ? I Have Alot Of Cichlids So I Wanna Try Something New
 
A planted community tank, tropical or sub tropical, would be awesome. For subtropical you could do your choice of corydoras for the bottom...you could probably have 20 corys in there, and they will be extremely happy!! For the middle you could do a large school of tetras, your choice here...And hatchetfish/butterfly fish for the top...of course many other options then I just mentioned.

Another idea is a planted tropical tank. 5-7 discus, some rams, angelfish, etc. And some delhizi/senegal or other smaller bichirs for the bottom, would definitly be neat.

Another setup is to go with a biotope, such as western african riversystems. Delhizi bichirs, african brown ghost knife, butterfly fish, congo tetras, synodontis catfish...your option list is definitly large! goodluck!

you should do a nice grouping of about 8 roseline sharks, and a school of rummynose and/or cardinal tetras or with some discus. heavily planted and a nice peice of driftwood. a 75g does have many endless possibilities and you would be surprised at how much choice you have.
 
A shoal of piranhas in a nice planted tank is always fun.
 
Could always go native. Could get 6-8 sunnies in there


Or, you could do a nice planted dwarf cichlid tank. My next tank is definately going to be an apisto tank, and 75 gallons is great for a good community
 
Reminder this guy is from hawaii so all the fun fish like piranhas, bichirs, rays, would be out of the question. i would go for a shoal of discus and clown loaches, with a red fin prochilodus
