Tank Recommendations for my cichlids?

Why 24 deep? Why not make the tank longer instead?

it depends...what do you plan on adding in each 75g tank? personally i dont think a Red Devil and Oscar will do good in a 75g tank, red devil will most likely kill the oscar and tank would be to small for both fish. As for the EBJDs they will do fine in a 75g tank.

I'm thinking the same thing about the red devil and the Oscar. I'd think you'd have to go much bigger of a tank for that comb to work, and I'd still think you'd need some hiding places for the Oscar.

i would definitly go longer then 3 feet if yur gonna build the tanks yurself

so would 2 75G be good for all of the fish of no?

I think you are going to need bigger unless you plan to put the oscar in one and the devil in another. And then I still think those tanks are a bit small.

The 200 you mentioned would be good.

I was thinking about going 96" in length and 24" by 24"???? are those good dimensions?

You mean a 240 gallon tank-yes that is better.
