i wanna see your votes! if u were to keep one or a pair of cichlids what would it be and why
 
do pbass count?
a breeding pair of some rair pbass or discus.( i assume we are talking sa/ca) a dovii or blue monster(i dunno what the real name is, thats all i hear them called, like a dovii with dempsey colors) would be sweet too.
 
The best cichlid to own is the one you like best. Everything is subjective.. i might think discus are weak and the next poster might love em to death.
 
dempseys. both the males and females look amazing, not too big so you wouldnt need a monster tank, but badass enough to be housed w/ monsters.. win win win lol
 
i based my vote on the pbass's colors(sexy monster), personality(monster), size(monster), and habits(proud monster). and the discus or angelfish are just beautifull and can be kept with the more serene tanks.
 
Wow, too many wishy washy answers, its a simple question.

The answer is very simple and obvious although many fish snobs will turn up heir noses, but the all time greatest most versatile and appealing cichlid in the history of fishkeeping is the Oscar.
 
I'm biased...:naughty:
I think my name speaks for itself... :D
RD/Midas/Midevils for ppl who are wondering.:ROFL:

If there was no limit on size, I'd have to say Pbass too.
I don't have the room to keep any tho.
:(
 
Geos have a beautiful, understated elegance and grace to them - I love big tanks of just a school of them. Their sifting is also just fun/neat to watch, haha.
