Ive got a pair of red hump geos and these guys are great but im thinking about getting something new. Ive got a 75 which is mostly plecos so i need something thats not very aggressive and colorful. Im gonna give the geos to my sister for her 55 but i really dont know what to replace them with. Any suggestions?

Nics, chocolate cichlids, rainbow cichlids, blue acaras would be some relatively peaceful options for a 75. You may be able to have a couple pairs in a 75.
 
Severums would work out well in there.
 
Sorry guys but no oscars. A bit too "dull" for me. No offense but its too common for me. Id like to find some geophagus winemilleri for a decent price. Anyone have some they wanna sell?

Winemilleri are shoalers that do best in groups of four or more and with this species reaching 10-12", you don't have the room in a 75. If you are looking for another species of geo, check out the link below. It's got all the geos that only hit 5-6" and four of them would work out well in a 75.

Otherwise, there are lots of options for you. Are you looking for one big fish (8-12"), a couple medium fish (5-8") or several small fish (2-5")?
