If you were forced to thin out your Parachromis collection, which one would you let go first? Let’s find out, which Parachromis is the least & most famous.

Mine would go like this. The first one to go would be:

Loisellei
Motaguense (Gold)
Managuense
Friedricksthalli
Motaguense (Red)
Dovii

Pictures of mine:

The male freddy is one of my oldest fish. It was very close to 13" TL the last time I measured it but I'm sure it has already maxed out since it's more than 5 years old.

I agree with this statement. Why not just get rid of all the females? :nilly: Why do you have to let go of any one of the species?
I'm not planning to get rid of them because they actually all get along in my big tank except for the Dovii pair (own tank). I just wanted to hear the opinions of members and find out which parachromis is the least & most favorite.

Ohh, ic ic. Well, from an availability standpoint, it would be in this order:

Jag, Dovii, gold mota, loiselli, freddy, RTM

But I guess it also depends on the individual specimen that you have. You could have a one of a kind jag and not want to get rid of it, etc.
