I have a 400 that I used on my 55 with A. Cichlids and the water is always been clear. No problems with it.

Good morning. My preference and experience is with the Aqua Clear(AC). I have 2 AC 110's (500gph) ready to on a new tank and I have an AC 70 (300gph) on my 26g. I love it. Quiet, does a great job. Too, I have the AC surface skimmer attached to the AC 70 as well. I recommend it too. Below is a link to the surface skimmer:

Why not use both for 75 G, especially for Cichlids, probably heavier load.
