All- Getting ready to rder some new cichids but am having a hard time deciding between a few. Just wanted some input.

Should I order --
Caquitaia myersi-Wild
or
Caquitaia umbirefa-F1 Rio Magalena
or
Adinocara stalsbergi
or
Paratalapia Sp. Small Spot
or
Paratalapia bleekeri
 
Stalsbergi would be awesome. Don't see much around there

What size is your tank?
 
I have alot of tanks 13 set up with 5 of them being 120 to 150g and 80+ in my garage ... these will be going into a 150g-- With no current occupants. I am leaning twards the Myersi because I have never kept them and I think After I grow them out they may make good tank mates for my Hoplarchus psittacus. Then again I have always wanted a Stalsbergi. Then again I have been able to breen partatalapia polleni before so I t may be cool to have some of the large and small spotted ones.
 
Where are you ordering stalsbergi from???
 
Breeding pair of polleni would be awesome! You've got lots of tanks going I don't think i could or want to maintain that many. Dedicated fellow you are sir.

Adinocara stalsbergi are pretty close to impossible to find. Ive spent some time looking. Would LOVE to find some myself.

Depends on what you have room for and what interests you. Me I love the fish of the Old Vieja species.
