I wish I could do a new big tank soon. How about some Bolivian Rams(not as aggressive towards Apistos than the Ramirezi),couple pairs Apistos,Pencils,some small Corys like habrosus or hastatus ,a pair or two Dicrossus maculatus or filamentosus,a few Laetacara dorsigera or curviceps (they swim around the whole tank)and- no flames please- some Discus(at 82 Deg.F) instead of Angels? A nice school of Cardinal and Rummynose Tetras to round up the picture and tons of plants and driftwood as decoration and breeding cover. I just described the 75g tank in my dining room.I even bred a lot of apistos and some Tetras in this setup. Have fun planning your tank.
