Personally, I haven't a clue. Though I love cyrtocara moorii (hey, who is that vomiting at the back?!).

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

BUT..to you, what is the most beautiful Malawi Cichlid?

It is all personal opinion....I'd have to say though that the Placidochromis Phenochilus "tanzania" ranks up there pretty high.

You know where to put your badge don't you???? :D

I like the Kadango for coloration. I have to agree that it is pretty hard to pick just one!

+1!

I agree, by far the nicest looking fish we have. Sucks, we lost his mate over the weekend. :wall: No clue what happened, at least she gave us 60+ fry.

I can't choose between Placidochromis electra and C. Afra Jalo Reef. I think the Electra just eeks out the Afra on shape and sleekness though.

And I'd probably pick a nice strain of a male greshakei for mbuna.
