Answers:

There are several types of south American Cichlids that would be great for your tank. Firemouths are one, as are Gold Severums, jewel cichlids in a small group, even a single small type of pike cichlid, such as a 2 spot pike or a Jack Dempsey. I would suggest you google images of south American cichlids and look for various fish in the 7-9" range for a single specimen or about 5" if you want a pair.

Gold ceverums start small, and get to be a good sized fish. Pretty eazy to care for too.

is this a tall or a long tank? some fish need more swimming room...

could keep cichlids for a while but they will grow...

Shark is out they need 100 gals min.

You could get a fish that looks like a shark but isn't and they are like 2 to 3 inches long and if you wanted a school you could have probaly 10 and they are about 2 bucks and can go with about any fish. Or try a few gouramis they are semi aggressive and about 5 would fit

I am assuming you are looking for some less common community fish. I would recommend gouramis, loaches, African dwarf frogs, African Butterfly fish, Knight goby, Bumble goby, Rainbow shark, SIAMESE NOT CHINESE Algae Eater,Marbled Hatchet Fish, Silver Hatchet Fish, Rams, Kribensis, Cockatoo cichlid, and bristlenose plecos, and paradise fish. Now of course you couldn't keep all of these fish/ aquatic species in the same tank, but choose some you like and do research to see if they are compatible.
