Ideas and advice on 75 gallon FW tank

Rainbows.

You could even divide it into different species of rainbows. They're a good size, active, insanely coloured....

If you do anubias, maybe some bolbitis fern, a school of 12-15 congo tetras might look nice

OK thanks for the advice, I think I want to get away from plants entirely as I have a low-tech planted tank in my office.

I'm with Rbacchiega, rainbow fish all the way. No plants at all though....well how about some small africn cichlids, the rainbow fish will do fine with them. N. brichardi are nice and active although they will take over the tank eventually. A nice harem of peacocks, shell dwellers... Compressiceps or Calvus are amazing looking fish and slow growing. You have lots of options. If you like active fish (as in pugnacious) look into tropheus, some are stunning colours and they are scrappy fish.

If your good with water quality i'd go with some rams, german blues or Bolivian

a 75 gallon, in my opinion would be a little cramped for peacock cichlids or tropheus species. But that's my opinion. Shell dwellers mixed with comps would be great...but I love rainbows LOL

if you want just a plane jane tank with rocks you can have one of my big oscars....he will eat anything and will take fish from your hand
