How about a Manta Ray, Great White Shark and a Giant Squid? :p

On a more serious note, give us some specs like...
Tank dimensions?
Any fish you already have that must go in this tank?
pH?
kH and gH hardness of your tap water (or are you planning to use RO)?
A community of different species or a species only breeding project?
Any particular fish you like?
 
36x12x18 I think.. Erm, It's Cycling atm!

I already have a 15G and no fish need to go into a bigger tank!

I don't actually know the hardness of my water off the top of my noggin, but I wrote it down somewhere!

I think I'm looking at just a community off different species!:'D

If water parameters permit you could have a pair of angels as your main species (only 2 though because of the space).
 
I'm going to hold off until you can give us at least pH values, ideally with hardness values. I have a feeling your water is quite soft and mildly acidic, but I could be way off the mark.
 
pH is 7.1 I have used two tests in the past, One said 7.0 one said 7.2 so I went in the middle! gH is 9.0 and kH is 6.0! (This is according to my Lfs, I can't find my API test kit-_-)
 
A random Sri Lanka/India setup...
10 Black Ruby Barb (1 male to 2 females)
10 Cherry Barbs (1 male to 2 females)
8 Zebra Loaches

A random African oddball setup...
3 African Butterfly Fish
3 Leopard Bushfish
3 African Butterfly Cichlids (1 male 2 females)

A random South American setup...
10 Lemon Tetra
10 Rummynose Tetra (whichever of the 3 species given this common name)
10 Sterbai Corydoras

Your water is very adaptable, good as it is for most soft water fish associated with South America, Asia, West Africa. If you wanted something from the Rift Valleys or Central America, you could easily harden the water.

Go and do some research, see what takes your fancy as a definite "must have" and post them in here, we can then say what is suitable and what would be suitable tankmates.

Okay! I'll mooch about on the internet and find some I like! Thanks for the help!

I'll trade you six giant Danios for one ray.

Imagine!;D
