cuban cichlids. usually dont grow too big, rare aggressive, and they dont hide. heard Ming has some even

That's what I want SO BAD. Except they get a lot bigger than Oscars, that's the reason I don't have one. I wouldn't put one in a 60 gal tank either. But then I wouldn't put an Oscar in a 60 gal either.

Who told you that malarkey? They do not get way bigger...about the same length, but O's are more massive overall.
 
Archocentrus/cryptoheros/amatitlania Can be just as pretty and ]V[onster as the next fish. They are my passion. I keep other things, but my con complex fish pave the way for my other stock...Without them...There would be no tanks for other fish to live in...Have fun with whatever you choose and post lots of pics.

Malarkey is right, I just looked them up properly! I can't remember who told me that but it wasn't just one person, it was several over a year ago. They compared them to Jags size-wise and I see now that's not true. I didn't go into depth researching them (just drooled over pictures) because I'd already marked them off my list because I didn't have room for another 6' tank.
Well that just makes me sick now. If I'd have known that I would've gotten one a long time ago. I did email Rapps back then and it was like $110 with the shipping (shipping was most all of it). What fish can I get rid of to make room.......??? Any except my Oscars!
