76g half round mixed tank

This is my 76 gallon half round w/ a 30 gallon sump. It has a heater and a powerhead. I have scaped it using artifical plants, driftwood, pool filter sand, egg rock, and native Kansas limestone. It's inhabitants include a 10" Jack Dempsey, a 13" Plecostomus, an 8" Nimbochromus Livingstonii, and a 10" Gold Severum.

this is my 30 gal set up for my yellow tail acei, yellow lab, rainbow shark, and 2 electric blue crayfish. They are all juvies still so they are quite enjoying the 3o gal, but will be moving them to a nice 55 or 75 gal in a couple months when i move.

Are all those fish in the same tank? Oscars,convicts and African cichlids all in one tank?

How big was the tank again? I know you told me but I forgot.
