I voted Festae but there are certainly many more that I'd consider beautiful. My 6 year-old son was watching a Monster Fish show with me and he saw a Peacock Bass for the first time. He's hooked! He wants me to setup a huge tank for them. So his vote would be different. I'm just glad my boy is taking after his dad!
 
I would have to go with a Texas Cichlid not a Carpintis either,but a Cyanoguttatus.When I had a male and he was defending his territory with the Salvini,the grey would change to white,which would look really cool.Also a small hump was growing on the head which was sweet to at 5 in half inches,very bulky fish for that size.I could only imagine what he would look at 10 inches.Also I am going to have to agree with calihawk with a ebjd,their colors are amazing.
 
Hard to pick just one - they all have certain beautiful aspects
Maybe that's why I'm constantly changing up
 
Wow not even one mention for any of the geophagus groups
