What kind or type of large growing cichlids. You've got Frontosa from lake Tang. and Haps from Lake Malawi, they get to 12" or so roughly.

Or are you wanting more colorful Peacocks from Lake Malawi, or Mbuna from Malawi? They get about 5-6" max (in general)

Maybe read those and see what you're thinking of putting in the tank.
