I love what you've picked out, I hope you're able to find the fish you're looking for.  
I bet it's hard looking at that empty 75G!  Here's to a speedy cycle!

Perhaps consider some gouramis for the dwarf sicklid tank as they spend most of their time at the top half of the tank.  Pearls are my favorite, but golds, blues, platinums, even the dwarfs are hardy and non aggressive.

I have 1 dwarf gourami now in the tank with the rams, he/she chases them around. Do you think if I got the gourami a "friend" it'll stop chasing my rams away??

Getting 2 dwarf gourami usually isn't very helpful. My experience if a one or a group. With two --- unless the tank is big enough --- one will dominate the other.

Well I've decided to put the gourami in the 75gal with the cats and cichlids....we'll see if he continues to bully anyone over there

Thanks  
I tested the water on wednesday evening and it's still iffy (ph 8.0, ammonia .25ppm, nitrite 0ppm, nitrate .25ppm), I will test it again tonight...hopefully it'll be ready for fish soon  :whistle:
