I just got this Chocolate Cichlid and a Botia Striata the other day for my tank. I'm very happy with both. There's also a L91 hiding in the tank so he can't be seen in the vid. I'm super happy with the Chocolate as he has tons of personality, appetite, and color. He/she is about 5-6".

THE VID IS 2 POSTS BELOW lol-

I agree, that's a nice looking Chocolate.

Thanks. I'm pretty stoked on how good he/she looks, but even more happy with how easily the fish warmed up to the new tank and myself. The fish never goes in the cave and dances for food every time I walk by. It's been raised on Hikari Bio-Gold pellets and I'll likely keep it on a pellet diet, with a few vegetables and bugs here and there.

nice choco mate my choco absolutely loves frozen mussels and frozen lance fish
 
I actually put a nice red worm in the day after I got him and he payed no attention to it. He's been strictly on the Bio-Gold since before I got him. I had him pecking at a cucumber a little bit, but chunks he spit out. And surprisingly the loach also didn't show interest. I'm just about to try some zucchini.

As far as frozen mussels and lance fish, I'm gonna try and keep the fish away from eating fish. The only meats he'll get will be from insects.
