Cuban cichlids

Males get 10-12" and females a little smaller nice colors can be aggressive. If you do a single Cuban you need at least a 75 gallon with other fish I would say nothing less then a 125 gallon. Egg layers. They need a temp around 80 degrees and ph around 7.4.

id say 78-84 degrees and ph up to 8.0 is not a problem. ive owned 2 sepperate breeding pairs and many many growouts. and heck yes there colors are awsome and patterns are amazing.
males have a much more steep profile.
females are more torpedo shaped and their dorsal has solid dark color, like the one on the right.
Best way to get a compatible pair, is to get 6-10 youngsters, grow them out in a large tank, and let them pair up naturally.
The first time I got 4, and the dominant male ate the other 3.
