Okay, so im getting a 55 or 75 gallon here in about...a week. So i need some pointers, since this is my first time setting up a tank for cichlids.

For simplicity, I will mark my questions on a numerical basis.

1) I love oscars. How well do africans go with them?

2) Sand substrate or gravel?

3) Open Swimming space or many many flatrocks and caves?

ANy other pointers for starting the tank up would be appreciated. Im trying to plan in advance here.
