I have a Tang 55g tank set up and wanted to keep a CA/SA cichlid tank. I have a 46g bowfront available for it. Either monster/big ones or a apisto/planted tank. Anyone got any stocking questions?

If i do decide the apisto/plant route... I would like to primarily breed them. Will I have to choose my plants carefully? I would like to use ferts and CO2. Also I would have to have a lot of driftwood/almond leaves to bring the pH down? (i get 7.8 out of tap here). How do I convert my hard water to soft?
 
I agree this is to small for monsters. You could howerver get a pair of convicts, firemouths, HRPs, ports, rainbows, or other smaller sized CAs
