Get a Pleko and/or Geophagus. The Pleko will eat algae off the glass and stuff in the gravel and the Geo actually mouths gravel and shoots it out his gills. Helps considerably with tank maintenance.

I used to have a 55 gal with South American Cichlids. Considered the pit bulls of fish. Unfortunately, over the years the Cichlisoma Labiatum (Red Devil) killed off the others one by one. He got to be about 9" long. Loved goldfish, crayfish and the occasional 'pinky'.
