Depends more on the temperament of the fish more than the size. What type of fish are you into? Right now I am thinking Nicaraguan pair, Severum pair, Salvini pair possibly a green terror pair. I would look more at a group of 6" fish like a group of thoricthys, acara, or Honduran red points.

If they are lower aggression cichlids up to 10" fish. Higher aggressive fish I wouldn't go larger than 6" fish. The 90 gallon doesn't give you much more than a 75 since they are basically the same footprint.
 
What lower aggressive cichlids that are over 10" are you thinking about ?
 
Oh didnt see that , but im just speculating , always want to try something new with my tank
 
I was thinking a group of Sajica something like that.Agree with above.fish up to 6" that aren't too aggressive would be better for a 90

Yes anything in cryptoheros, astatheros, or aequidens would be ideal. Possibly even a couple of pairs(depending on species) along with a school of lemon tetras would be very cool.
