We have a koi pond,I've got to fence it off or fill it in before she starts walking.It will break my heart as I love the koi.It goes without saying her safety comes first.

I dont usually keep cichlids, but a few years ago I had a chance to pick some up, so I temporarily put a bunch in my old 180. Tank was way overstocked, but way really awesome for what it was for the short time I had everyone in there together with my old 24" community friendly Jardini no less.

In that tank I had an beautiful Bocourti. I would love to have one again, easy 12" and great personality.

Wow, almost missed all this. J jaws7777 The Lyonsi are great. Biggest ones are easily 2x if not 3x the size of when I got them, though all still little compared to what they will be. Hets are on my list for a big community in some 1,000+ gallon dream tank, good to here (s)he's taken your top spot.

A little bit of an ancient thread but I had to reference it for something so I figured I'd give it a bump. Anyone's favorites change? Mine sure has from post one...

RTM is my favorite, one of my males, this guy is f3. I never clean my back glass, it looks more natural to me

Currently, it's a tough call, but my male White/Silver Saum is at least in my top 3

Minus the aggression levels, which even at 3", I've classified as "LUDICROUS Aggressive"......just a little higher than "Extremely" and "Highly" Aggressive, the Motagua cichlid

and finally another new species to me I've become truly enlightened by, Geophagus brasiliensis - the Pearl Cichlid
