I just set my 90 gallon fish tank back up and am debating on what type of fish to put in it.
Last time it was set up it was a community tank with a mix of lots of things but i think i want something different like oscars or african ciclids.
any suggestions?

Ever tried an aligator gar or a florida gar? both types are freaking awesome to watch eat other fish :D right now, my fishtank is empty, something killed all of my fish, gars and all. btw shovelnose catfish are really cool fish, lightning fast.
