If you have a favorite or just one you think is cool / amazing for whatever reason, things like colors, attitude, breading....... Whatever your reason is, If you would Like to contribute to the thread please Leave a post with the name of your fish Scientific or common or both, and Tell us why you like this fish. If you can leave a picture of your fish please do so as well as mentioning how old the fish is pictured (if you know) By contributing to this thread you will not only let people what kind of American Cichlids you Keep/Love but will help others come to Love these amazing fish as well as enhance the knowledge and understading of those who may not keep these type of Fish.
