yea hes right, the eurekas have some of the best color ive seen, especially his... most of the pea****s show some really great colors, but many of them take time to color up, and some need females to really shine...

All cichlids are potential show cichlids, I love them all! And probably have most of them too!

If you have a big enough tank with enough hiding places, pH of around 7, you can keep virtually any fish together as long as all the fish are around the same size and these two groups of fish are avioded: Serrasalmus Tetradon(figure eights and dwarfs are the exception). I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families: Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers. |
