I want something that will stand out in terms of color and something in the middle or lower when it comes to aggression. Size probably not too large. Any ideas?

As far as Thorichthys, I'd say Maculipinnis aka Ellioti all the way. They are super colorful and really stand out, I have a male/female from Rapps. (Not technically a pair because the female is not interested). People have said they are really aggressive, but mine are not. The male is just aggressive towards the female because he wants to spawn. I don't have a good camera, but maybe I'll post a pic or two later. There are already some other threads about them up here

They do look really nice. I'll probably look into them. Thanks :)

I know they are super common but I still love the look of Thorichthys Meeki (Firemouth) and also Pasionis (their black and yellow markings look great). Pasionis can be a touch more aggressive though.
 
Robertsoni is a target of mine because they are the largest in the group and I love the blue colors but I agree with most people that Ellioti are simply stunning.
