Would this fish be a good addition to a 75G tank. I have a trio of
Red Top Aristochromis now.

IMO, I think they would go beautifully, never kept Aristo's though. The only problem that I would see would be the possibility of hybridization. But if you don't intend on breeding, I would'nt worry about it.

I do keep Proto steveni taiwan reef and I find their aquarium behavior mild mannered. Make sure you get good stock, through in-breeding their colors dont show as well as good line bred fish. The only problem is that when they are juvies you can't tell. If you have a breeder in your area do yourself a favor and go to them. They are a magnificent cichlid when their colors are at their best.

Maybe someone who is personally familiar w/O-litho's can tell you.

best of luck-let us know :)
