Best looking Cichlid

[seedubs1]

Amphilophus Lyonsi for sure!

Too bad it didn't make the list. It's like a smaller, more colorful, Trimac.

Love Umbee iridescent color on a bulky big fish. I actually don't like the huge nuchal hump, looks retarded IMO. Small one on a big mature male is cool though.

Acaronia nassa

if i had to choose one it would be the umbee for me

I voted salvini, because no other cichlid can come close to the colors, cool body shape, and teeth. It is a difficult choice because there are too many great looking cichlids. Other then that I would say h. deppi, any parachromis sp., a. robertsoni, a. rostratus, p. syn, or trimac.

I chose Festae, but am really loving the colorful Vieja's and Parateraps. Like the Synspilum, Bifasciatum, Zonatum, and more. I mean come on, you all have seen Aquamojo's pictures of his beautiful Zonatum, and his others.

I like my Venny Pike the best

Female Festae for sure, breeding Texas 2nd.

what about the peacock malwai cichlids, there are only SA and CA here lol

Well it's the CA/SA section, so...

Hard to beat an adult male of some of the Vieja species for me. A lot of the Herichthys are stunning in breeding dress. Tomocichla are gorgeous and tuba and asfraci are about as rare as it gets at the moment. Big parachromis pairs also really "do it" for me... Can't pick one obviously.
