What is Your Favorite Cichla?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Orino, Mono's, Azuls(cause I don't have any..lol) Intermedia's might be a new fav for alot of people once we see them grown out..
 
zullies no doubt
 
C. intermedia as far as aquaria is concerned. As the smallest species of pbass it is the only one I can realistically house for life. The problem is getting ahold of one for a reasonable price.
 
I have not seen any large orinos in person, but if they look anything in real life like they do in dmacks pictures, then they are definitely on the top of my list. After that, I would say that super-monos are second. Monos and azuls are currently tied for third, although my larger azul is slowly swaying me more towards the azuls.
 
I like tems and Azul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
i think my favorite as far as looks are Temensis.. they are cuter babies, and i love the spots when they are bigger.. BUT, i think the ocellaris have better personalities.

i saw some orinos at an LFS the other day, but they were tiny.. couldn't really even get an idea of what they will look like grown up. But i WILL get a couple orinos soon.. just a matter of finding them at a size that will allow them to be put directly into the big tank with my big ocellaris.
 
My fav is the orino BUT im getting some intermedia next week and i cant wait to see them at 7"-8"
 
orinos azuls super monos monos intermedia I like them all
