COTA has 11inch Piebald Midas Males for $100 dollars meeting the minimum requirement for shipping. I bet they are amazing fish. Unboxing an 11inch out of the air cargo box has to be a trip!
 
I’d go for Red tiger motas. Imo they’re probably the most beautiful cichlid out there (sorry Festae lovers, they’re a close 2nd :grinyes:)
They’ve got the aggression, personality and the colors, and they’re not the biggest out there, but certainly not the smallest either.
 
Cichlids-r-beasts Cichlids-r-beasts funny those were some of the first I considered but the more research I did for people looking for wet pets and personality, amphs keep coming to the top. I will give it to you though the RTMs are beauties.
 
Amphilophus are fun, I'm sure you won't be disappointed if you go that route.
If I personally had this tank free, I'd probably go for Beani, Istlanum, or Grammodes. Start with a small group and grow out a pair or even just an alpha male. Just some personal favorites.
