That is truly a beautiful fish. Ive never seen them before here in New York, I guess there not common in the fish game out here.
What is the easiest Cichlid to breed?

A newly matured pair of Australoheros red ceibal would be my choice because they wouldn't need a heater, in fact, fluctuation in temp seems to spur them on.
I had a pair spawn in an outdoor tank, choked with algae, water temps would be high 80sF during the day, 50sF at night.
I never fed the tank, the pair and fry lived off algae, and whatever else fell in.
A 10 gal would probably be to small after the initial breeding the first season, because they grow very quickly.

They are not the easiest per se... but some of the more common apistograma are not to hard and could live a long healthy life in a ten gallon
They seem to "not" be LFS regulars, but they are very common here in the local aquarium club circles, as they are so easy to spawn, and BAP. I put them in my pond in spring, and usually pull out at least 100 in fall, even with the many predators in the pond.
Below is 1 swipe of the net last fall.
They do hit 6+" so a 10 gallon would only work the first season.
