I'm actually not set on South or Central American fish, but I don't want to post the same question in two forums unless I need to. Here's the situation...
I have a 55 gallon (48"x12") planted tank. Currently it houses 9 Colombian Tetras and 2 SAE's. I would like a large, colorful cichlid that I can have 1 or 2 of in the tank. Obviously it needs to be ok in a planted tank and needs to not eat Colombian Tetras.
Someone has suggested to me a pair of hypsophrys nicaraguesis, which I really like, but I wanted to see if there were any other suggestions. I've had jabillions of angels, so I don't really want those and I haven't had a great time with firemouths either. Discus would be great, but that's just not gonna happen. :lol:
So what large, colorful, non plant eating, non Colombian Tetra eating cichlid would be a good choice?
