Here is a pic currently, as it's starting to cycle.

I'd love some suggestions, ideas etc

The centerpiece of the tank is a breeding pair of Satanoperca jurupari.

There will also be mr. Pleco and (3) 4" clown loaches (manny, mo and jack) and a medium Pictus cat.

Thanks
 
A group of geophagus sp. tapajo I or II (aka orange head and peach head) would compliment the jurupari well, and then some smaller acara-like cichlids, like cleithracara maronii and biodotema cupido/wavrini I would add a nice touch, especially the latter.
 
I'd be careful with the stones too, remember that these are eartheaters and will love sand around. Not major, but it depends on the individuals. I'd also add some fake tall plants, or even some jungle cap around the main stones
