I know this guy is not much to look at compared to many of your beautiful Cichla, but I am stoked to finally have one. Thanks Pwmin.

I am hoping the Odoe teaches him to eat frozen shrimp and silversides. I don't really want to resort to feeders.
 
looks good i know i just recently caught the cichness and started with 1 about his/her size now i have 2 in the 5" range and 2 more on order at my lfs haha.. its a great cichness hope you enjoy him/her as much as we do ours
 
Welcome to the cichlamadness. Nice looking Occel.
 
looks like it settled in well as far as the coloration goes. hopefully it'll start eating good for you. that odoe is looking tight. hopefully you'll have a kelberi before too long
 
Thanks everyone! I will definitely have more eventually. My next tank will be a bigger tank dedicated to Cichla:headbang2

Yeah, he isn't really being chased any more by the Odoe. Everyone else in the tank ignores him. He is roaming the tank comfortably. I don't know why more people don't own Odoes. I definitely enjoy owning this fish.

I will be looking forward to getting a Kelberi:naughty:
