The size of the aquarium sure isn't limiting what you can stick in there much. I saw a beautiful Miniatus grouper that would have been great in a tank like that. You could also do one of the larger species of moray. Are you more into the predatory aggressive fish or do you want more peaceful fish like angelfish, butterfly fish and such?

If I had a tank that large I would keep large angels, puffers, groupers, and schools of schooling fishes....

I have never had any schooling fish, but I know that Chromis and Anthias seem to be popular for schools. But those are not really large fish, so you are limited to the other fish you could have in there to being either smaller or peaceful, something like a grouper would use them as a food source. But you could have the schooling fish, and then have angelfish, tangs, butterfly fish, some of the wrasses, a peaceful trigger fish species and others. It would make an awesome setup.

If you are going to configure a tank of these dimensions you should invest in a good circulation system and a powerful skimmer. Regarding the choice of fish, I will always choose angelfishes, also some anthias will look good in that space, and I'm sure you will want tangs, so you must take into account the circulation, keep us informed.
