I am very sorry. Every loss is a sad one. I hope you're able to rebuild it into something that makes you happy again.

I feel your loss. Quite a few years ago we lost power for 3-4 days and I had only one out of 11 fancy goldfish survive. I put a lot of effort into my goldfish and they all had unique personalities. Sometimes it can be really hard, but it is good to see the opportunity in it to start again. I feel your pain, hopefully your next set up will bring you even more joy 
ok guys so now that i lost everything i have to think about how to make this new tank better. Keeping in mind that i still have three white clouds how would you stock a 20 long? Thanks

Well, for starters you should fill your school of white clouds up. Since they made it through this ordeal, they have proven to be a good fish to have! And they are beautiful
Depends on what you like, but I would suggest another schooling species for the lower section of the tank. Glowlight Tetras, Rummynose Tetras or Dwarf Corydoras do just fine in cooler temps around 75-77 degrees F. Having a group at the bottom level and one at the top Level would be quite nice if you keep the schools betwen 15 and 20 fishes. Sounds like a lot of fish, but they are small and stay in specific areas of the tank so they would not be crowded for swimming space.
You had mentioned a small Cichlid as your centerpiece fish...that could be nice if you could fins a easy-going specimen, and skip more schooling species. There are some dwarf cichlids known to be good for community tanks, but I don't know about temperature compatibility with White Clouds. Perhaps someone could you help you out with that if you start another thread in the fish section.
Good luck!
