cichlid city
everybody has opinions,but which cichlid would u consider the best for the buck.in other words which cichlid is worth every bit of thier average cost.
 
get a baby Jaguar, soon enough he'll be munchin down whatever you drop in the tank, will chase your finger... and you can buy em around me for roughly 5$ a fish!

I didint like the answers in the poll sorry.
 
Last I checked Butticoferi was not an american cichlid... Otherwise I voted for red devil :popcorn:

I Love the RD! but I also love the Jag! but for the $$? What about the beauty of a Texas??

1) Jag
2) Texas
3) Red Devil

IMHO

Convict. You can get em for roughly a dollar, and they are great, often overlooked, fish. Next I would say Oscars... they are just about the coolest fish ever, and can be got for under 5$
 
2 convicts would be nice... and aggressive too.. i'd say 2 bredding cons would make short work of anything with it.

Good Point on the Cons! I just got 3 for .88 cents each. Great bang for the buck!

Only bad thing about COns is, i cant sell them to anyone, cuz everyone has them and theyre so cheap.. so when they breed, basically theyll just be food for themselves after awhile.. as rarer fish u could possibly sell the fry!
