African cichlids can be so colorful that they look like salt water. I have a 55 gal full of them ranging from fry to 6 inches. beautiful and fun fish. they like hard, salty water and need many caves to hide in. you'd probably need a chunk of limestone to keep the water hard, plus they like lots of water changes and eat special cichlid food.
I think they are great for my area because our tap water is very hard.

I agree with all the cichlid lovers here.

I have a 55 gal with cichlids in it and as a matter a fact there are 2 male elctric blue johannis in it and they are stunning fish so grnlemonade has my vote for great taste.

Thank you
Samson

Currently my favorite type of fish is the Bala Shark, sometimes refered to as a "silver shark" They are very good looking fish, And can grow i hear to an outstanding 18' on very rare occasions. But they are quick and very streamline. Their silver texture is brilliant.

I would consider doing something different with a 100 gallon. Maybe brackish water with puffers or a blackwater tank with gouramis. I think a heavily planted blackwater tank with a bit of spotlighting and driftwood would be stunning.

I would get some cory catfish, they eat the extra food on the bottom on the tank.
