What would you let loose in a 1000 gallon tank?

Your other half has agreed in principle to having a big 1000
gallon tank in your house, when you finally get round to
building it. You may have neglected to tell them how expensive
it will be but we'll let that slide for now. So what are you
going to put in this bad boy?
For me it would have to include some Peacock Bass, some monster
plecs and an Arowana, well it would be rude not to. Something
like this:
4 x Peacock Bass Cichla ocellaris
2 x Leopard Sailfin Plecos
2 x Royal Plecos
1 x Silver Arowana
You never know, it could happen. May need to build my own wind
turbine to power it mind you. Anyway, what would you stock your
own 1000 gallon with if the opportunity ever arose?

John, at least you know that if you drop a few hints you'll be
sorted for a background and some nice rock shaped internal
decor.

About 2200 Celestial Pearl Danios or 1400 Neon Tetras. That
could be a good few trips to the LFS.

I'd probably relocate a lot of my current fish and see them
enjoy the mass space. I might then finally be able to stick my
ornate with other bichirs and get away with it (plenty of
territory?).
Would have to get more large species loaches, rope-fish, and
elephant noses. It would be amazing to see that kind of a
collection and the complex behaviors that would arise.
