What about Amphilophus chancho? They get big and are very cool. I think Jeff Rapps has some, or at least he did.

Or A trimac but im talking pure trimac wild caught nothing with any flowerhorn in it. I personally cannot stand most flowerhorns there are a few that are very nice but the majority to me just look deformed to me.

well i not sure if its a great idea...but it has the aggression you plan on seeing naturally and some great colorations...but you could try getting a male motaguense, or a black nasty...or a carpinte, or a red terror...not those false festae...but the true ones...i have a wild caught female and she's one aggro M-Fo! lol but yea...she more aggressive than male red terrors from most peoples experience.

refer to 1 of my previous posts on black nasties. something about the eyes that i dont like and quite frankly it gives me the creeps. i thought about festae though really bright and angry to match.
not too keen on the Amphilophus chancho, motas or texas(too common). nice looking fish but not for me.
PMK i think you just made up my mind. when i imagine owning a big angry/friendly (whatever it is it will be loved) trimac i get goose bumps and i get the excited feeling so im not gonna fight it.
trimac feels right when i think about it. i was also thinking pure trimac, although FH did cross my ming but trimac look better when adult. i will be looking to spend some decent coin as it will be the only fish in the tank.

thanks you for your replies, help and your time.

No problem just make sure wherever you get yourr trimac that they are reputable since ive seen so many people say i got a trimac and end up having a flowerhorn
