You could keep almost any species except real big bruisers like dovii. What is your favorite genus of CAs?

Red tiger mota, vieja argentea, robertsoni, cutteri, sajiica, HRP, JD, just to throw out couple of my favorite CA cichlids. Man wish I have a 240. Congrats on the tank and you will sure have a lot of fun with the tank.
