Well I learned from the best so I feel I'm allowed to!
You can't have my favorites!!!
Cryptoheros is by far my favorite genus, I breed.
Cutteri.
Sajica.
Chetumalensis.
Septemfasciatus.
Mrynae.
Honduran sp.
Panamensis.
Nanoletues.
My favorite new world cichlids are the red tiger, jaguar cichlids, green terrors, festaes, and convicts.
Do you have any that are breeding? That is a beautiful fish. Will have to look up the others.
A 7ft tank needs big fish so that sized tank I'd do as follows.
1 pair of Paratheraps synspilus or breidohri.
6-7 Thorichthys pasiones.
1 pair of Cryproheros panamensis.
12-15 corydoras of your liking(hit or miss with large fish).
20-25 Hyphessobrycon pulchripinnis.
1 Panaque nigrolineatus.
My Lfs had some young synspilum cichlids for 20 dollars. This is a slow growing species by the way.
That sounds like a tank full of awesome! What about 8-10 Hoplosternum thoracatum instead of corydoras?!

Or maybe even a good sized school of Cory, and then 3-4 of either hoplo or porthole
Porthole cats are cool. A school of Pictus cats would look great
I like the rock layout except the stacked ones in the back with the slate, I'd lose those and out some more larger boulders and stack from there. This way all the rocks are uniform and more natural looking in my opinion. Awesome start, now put some big glass banger Central American cichlids in there and call it a day!
After filling with water I believe your right. The stacked rocks just don't look right. I am going to try and find a way to make some cave and get that out of the tank. Want to get some fake plant to bring a little color into the tank.
