you got pretty common ones try branching out. I got everything from severums to festaes and texas, get along pretty well in my 150

That's what I was getting at....I've always thought JD's and Oscars are kind of boring.

A couple of time when I was newer to fishkeeping, I tried to switch to African but quickly came back to New World.

i would just drop the oscar and grab something from ken davis (fish far) he's not too far from you

Yeah I have bought a few things from Ken. I'm going to purchase a few more things, but he doesn't have exactly what I want at the moment. I want a rotkiel and a few other fish that he doens' t have in.

I had a festae, melanurus and a few others that I recently traded. They were too aggressive. The ones in this tank are kind of common though, but my JD is the nicest one I have ever seen in a LFS. I had never really wanted a JD, but he was just too amazing.

I actually did the same things a few years ago. I ended up closing down my Mbuna tanks. Frontosas are kind of a new addiction for me. I do love my CAs though.
 
I really love my africans but right now Im on a ca/sa streak so Im leaning that way

Yeah liking them all is my problem. I could always buy more tanks, but hate to do that. I hate to get rid of any fish, but it would be ok if they got a descent home.
 
if you wanted to you could do a mix like salvini and cons and some larger africans. if you want both then go for it.
 
Go for the mobas! They are super nice and you can't resist the blue!!! :D As said, they would look much nicer then your current fish and would take your tank to the next level.
