I want to know evryone's favorite cichlids, I'm having trouble deciding on what to get for a 250 gallon tank that my friend will be giving me, just trying to think ahead. I'm looking for the popular, big, mean, or nasty cichlid but I would like to know what everyone else likes first. Chances are this tank will only hold a few big ones, or maybe a pair.
Favorite central and south American cichlids
