What would it be? I was thinking of attempting to make an color-intense CA/SA cichlid tank..

So far, I have 3 that would be MUST-HAVE's for this dream tank.

Green Terror
Female Festae
Salvini

Anyone have suggestions? I was thinking a hondurin red-point Convict would be cool, but I am hoping to come up with some other really COLORFUL fish.. Like a dwarf pike, geo, and any other rare CA/SA cichlids.
 
GET AWESOME GEOPHAGUS SPECIES!!!!! They look amazing!
Altifrons
Tapajos red heads
Tapajos II gold heads
many many many more great... Geo's
 
You need a male Jack Dempsey in there. I don't care what anyone says these are some of the most vibrant SA/CA.:headbang2

Do you want Aggressive fish so theyre colorful until their fins get ripped off or???
I'd say get a EBJD, atleast then it will be less aggressive...
 
EBJD
festae

Im thinkin the Festae will make the EBJD its BIzitch.

Figured since he already said GT and they're definitely more aggressive than a JD.
 
What I'm hearing here really isn't that colorful, except for the festae, and the salvini would preferably be a female as well - more yellow.
WIth a GT, they aren't very colorful, it's just that awesome orange (or silver) fin edge.

For COLOR - albino oscar, red bay snook, convict, firemouth, you know, along those lines.

You need to decide if you want VERY Colorful FISH, or a fish that has a very colorful PART on it.
