i like tropical.
 
One can not be "better" than the other.. They are both awesome fish. I own both (and all other 5 species) and can not judge one over the other for any particular reason. They all have good points and bad ones... They all in the end even out to be damn cool fish...

Perfect Answer!!! They are all indeed absolutely amazing and i could never pick only one.

To answer the above question (just for fun)...i would have to say Tropical, because of there awesome patterning and being as stable as they are.
 
as richard said, neither of the fishes can really be "better", but one can definitely have a personal preference. between the two listed, i personally like the Cubans better because of their giant/wide jaws and pretty aggressive demeanor. the challenge with keeping that particular species also makes them interesting to me (although the durability of a tropical gar is also nice).
having also had a hand in importing both species for the first time in recent history makes both species favorites of mine amongst "the seven" :) --

And i'm sure those of us who have had the chance to keep either/both of them are greatful and thankful for you and all the others involved in these importations.
