Setting up a new Cichlid Tank

[jc102]

Hey guys,

I am wanting to start keeping African Cichlids, but I can't decide what to stock! I have a 75-gallon long tank that I am going to setup as soon as I figure out what to do as far as stocking and scape. I think I am leaning more towards keeping bigger fish, but I'm not 100% settled on that idea. Anyway, I'd love to hear some stocking ideas!

Jc what else are you planning with the tank as far as setup. Plants, driftwood, etc??

This will help narrow down types.

I was thinking about just doing white sand, some rocks, and driftwood for my pleco.
