I impress plenty of people with my Oscar.
Of course the people i impress arent avid fish keepers and dont really know of any other fish.
So if you're trying to impress the admins on this site... an Oscar might not be the way to go.
There are plenty of cichlids that are very attractive and conversation starters.
My Jack Dempsey is colorful, but he always hangs out in this log, so for a show fish i would say no.
Maybe a male Green Terror. I've seen some very nice GT's.
Red Devils are pretty boring as far as color.
Salvinis are very colorful, but a 75 gallon would be on the empty side with just 1.
Just pull up a nice long list of cichlids or other fish that dont get much larger than 12-14". Pick out the most attractive species and narrow it down from there.
Pick a fish that YOU think is nice. Otherwise you could be here forever while everyone here argues about what fish are more impressive.
