cichlid city
Im getting a 90 gallon as a early christmas present,and i want to stock it with some predatory cichlids.I was thinking of a sandy subtrate with large driftwood and a couple red devils.are their any other ideas. My fav lfs is selling medium sized red devils for 10 dollers a piece.The also have manguenese ,green terror,texas and dovii, plus many more.:D
 
If it was my tank, I would try a couple big pike cichlids. They are by far the coolest predator cichlid imo, and they are interesting to watch. They get a little big in the long run, but Xingu's are nice. http://www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=1426

If your not into pikes, you might want to try one of the smaller Parachromis sp. like Loisellei or fredricksthalli.

Good luck!
 
yea if your just going for a single species cichlid go with a female jag, or a fredi, loiselli as stated above
or ya could do a couple geo's and sev would look cool
 
Pair of albino O's and then set up your background color black w/ some driftwoods and sand.:) a pain in the *** in cleaning but more feasible to your eyes and to others..:)
