75g stocking ideas

[FishieKeeper429]

I recently discovered that when I move, I am getting a 125g (community freshwater), a 30g (community freshwater) and a 75g (cichlid community). I don't know much about cichlids but I love their colors and will have room for them in the 75g so any advice about cichlids, any stocking ideas, any mistakes I shouldn't make about them, post here. I really want to make sure these cichlids live! Thanks!
