I have a 75 gal now with 20 cichlids in it. Coworker is getting rid of a 90 gal tank (only $100) and want to upgrade. I need some suggestions on best way to go about this. Current filtration is 2-AC110 and XP4. Should i get any other type of filtration/water movement?? Holey rock for decoration sitting on egg crate, crushed coral for substrate. Any help would be appreciated.

That should be more than enough filtration. You might end up needing a powerhead or two for movement, but with that much filtration if you place the outlet of the XP4 carefully you'll be fine.

Go for the upgrade. I love the extra height of my 90 gallon. Looks great with my mbuna going in and out of my huge rockpile.
