What is you all time FAVORITE south/Central American cichlid or fish that you have owned? (Even if you don't currently have it in your collection) what is your bread and butter so to speak, feel free to post cool pics and discuss your species if you would like.
 
I'll start, mine is the good old gold/white saum(green terror) I've owned them on and off for around 12 years and I just love how active they are and how they just have that predatory alpha personality!!! , I've set up my new 45 and intend to grow one out then move him into a bigger tank when the time comes.
 
I gotta say my green terror as well, I had a pair when I was younger and no one has topped them. Second fav would be oscar
 
In my 20+ years of fish keeping, this was by far my favorite fish. His beauty, personality and attitude were second to none. His name was Stevie, and he was a 12" Amph (likely RD/Midas). I so badly regret getting rid of him. Here's a picture I took of him shortly before I traded him in.

Electric blue acaras and green Terrors are my favorite though I had a salvini that I really liked

By far my beautiful Horrace:

I loved him that much that when he passed we had him cremated. R.I.P my big man.
