most beautiful that I currently own would probably be my 10" male P. zonatus or my 10" male trimac. most beautiful that I've ever owned was my festae pair. 
You are definately correct on 'his'. Definately beautiful male, no questions.
this is a very hard choice but i guess i'd stick with the oscar since beauty is not only shown on th out side... eheheh
Some pics of my guys for ya. The Lyonsi is just starting to color out, the red is appearing in the back half of the fins and on the chest. Should be realy cool when mature!
Those are some nice shots. I've never seen lyonsi anywhere around here, just see it posted on the net or in books. Nice fish.
Thanks, the pictures dont do him (or her, not quite sure) justice. The flash seems to wash out the colors, especialy the vertical barring which is subtle but obvious in person.
BTW they arent common around here either. I saw a pic on the internet and asked about them at the LFS and they happened to have 8 on hand... the only ones they have ever had! Lucky break I guess. (in hindsight I probably should have tried for a pair)
