African Cichlids or get some Piranhas and a Tiger fish. the last 2 are from the amazon and will take off fingers when bigger.

Nice @Fores41
120gal for some nice South American cichlids but may only be able to take one or two. I have never kept such beasts (I'm a tiny fish person). If you want some bad boys, Terrors, Jack Dempseys, Jaguars would be cool but out of my league. African cichlids are aggressive however you can get colonies going and Lake Malawi cichlids come to mind. I used to keep the more elegant Lake Tanganyika types, and they are not as "aggressive".
