What would you rather have? and why?
when fully grown and mature which fish has more value? and which do you think looks better?
 
I would rather have an umbie for color and aggression. A mature male umbie could sell for hundreds of dollars easily.
 
I like the big beefy haitiensis, but I would say that first, then dovii, then umbee.


Only reason is mostly tank requirement for umbee and dovii is much greater than black nasty. As for Dovii over Umbee, I saw one picture of a guys dovii in his office that made me really want one (so thats 2nd). And I always thought umbees looked kinda like big jack dempseys so I never really liked them.
 
I'd prefer to stray away from the norm monster cichlid and opt for a more colourful Umbee. Wouldnt it be fun to let your 4 year old child play with one.
 
umbriferiums no doubt first, had dovii- cool, male odo's don't grow over 16". and umbee's are gorgeus.
 
i've had a dovii and i got a tetracanthus at mo. i prefer tetracanthus i reckon. would like to try and Umbee though.
