[boofish2]

I have to say even though I love my Angels, Discus IMO are the most vibrant and beautiful.

[iangangoo]

[VTwinFanatic]

Gotta Love My Discus followed closely by my cockatoo apistos

[jm1212]

in this order- angels, discus, gold severum, blood parrots, german blue rams

[exotic_keeper]

red devil cichlid

[lucky777ca]

Although I don't have them, Pseudotropheus saulosi, Julidochromis dickfeldi, Angelfishes (Koi), German Blue Rams, Apistogramma cacatuoides... What I do/did have (and really like also): Pelvicachromis pulcher & Blood Parrot Cichlid

I really like all small cichlids, less than 6". The exceptions are the Angelfish, Blood Parrots and Discus

[blackwolfXKAV]

electric yellow labs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[khombre]

Discus and the Escondido. :dive2:

[Salvador Dali]

oscar and reb zebra

[albyoscar]

gotta love them red devils

[mooman]

Apistogrammas, no contest

[Russy pelican]

Frontosa or the little Tanganyikans' (shell dwellers, julies, etc).

[treiner5]

I like my Bolivian Rams alot since they come to the side to welcome me and are rather intelligent for fish. Although I haven't owned any of the supposedly very intelligent cichlids.

[AndrewMack]

Buffalo head cichlid. just wich they werent 60 bucks a pair

[Squawkbert]

JDs
Firemouth
Labs (yellow)
Johanii (any, many)

[RadleyMiller]

Orange Chromide, they have a lot of spunk

[Jimbob1]

Gt and Flowerhorn all the way

[rosita]

My Turquoise Severum, my Paratilapia polleni, and my Brichardi pair. And my OB peacock, Leo. Never can narrow anything down to one.

[Ichthyophile]

Love 'em all ... but my favorite is the African Butterfly Cichlid (Anomalochromis thomasi).

[con-man-dan]

Yikes...just one?? Maybe one from each categorie lol
Malawi - either C. Moorii or Red Top Kipuma
Tang - Neolamp. Gracilis
Victoria - Hap 44
West African - Chromidotilapia Guentheri
East Afr - Hemichromis elongatus
South American - Apisto Gibbiceps
Central - these are my loves, but my favorite genus would be cryptoheros!
I keep all these guys, minus the Hemichromis, I had some, but my male commited suicide and trying to force pair these fish is almost impossible *shrug*

[mostlycichlids]

I would love to own a dovii and a red devil.

[Sunpoe]

Dovi

[JuanTamad]

Cichla Ocellaris is my alltime favorite.

[Shagmaster]

GREEN TERROR

[Gian krlo]

just have to say i love gts, they are my fav cichlid!!!!love all of them!!!!luckily i can catch them when i want!!!!they are gorgeous fish...


GREEN TERROR plp! :)

[ROLLIN]

Over all, probably oscars.

[sirasoni]

n.haitiensis...they're ugly but cool :)

[Marinemom]

It is hard to pick just one so I will name a few of my favorites.

Discus(The kings of freshwater)

Angels

Texas cichlid

Firemouth

Jack Dempsey

Blue German rams

I can't pick just one.

Marinemom

[neonmadness]

oscars

[Batmanjay28]

Gotta love GTs and FHs!!!!!!!!!
FHs are one of the most beautiful fish!

[garbon2535]

I have always had a thing for Angels. I recently got into Oscars and I really like Electric Yellow cichlids..

[BlueJax]

This month I am mostly loving my electric blue dempseys, but I reckon for wow factor a good quality ram/ discus is hard to beat.

Also, I think the goldeneye cichlid (Nannacara anomala) is one of the most underrated cichlids around, particularly the male in breeding condition. Mine used to shine before his mate passed away.

[Chickieepooh2u]

Definately my P. Pulcher Kribensis!!

[danzig]

personally i like oscars and JD's for their unique personalities,from my personal experience.
i really do like the look of mbuna tanks in general but have never kept mbunas or any malawi's etc.
i also am a convict fan as i find them very amusing (their hissy fits lol).my oscars when upset will sulk at the bottom, however the male convict i had when he got mad would act like a drunken rock star in a hotel room and trash the place lol.( rip out plants, push over deco etc.)
i have had convicts in the past and wont be getting them again.(they just plain out seem to hate every other fish).

[Dog]

Amphilophus trimaculatus - trimac

[eveliens]

It's a hard choice, but I'd have to say:

severums (Cichlasoma severum)
electric yellow labs (Labidochromis caeruleus)
checkerboard cichlids (Dicrossus filamentosus)

I miss my littler checkers and if I ever find more, I'm going to definately buy them!

[Bill1171]

Jack Demsey! I had a tiny JD that I had to put in a 10 gallon by himself. After living in the 10 gallon, then a 30 gallon, then a 55 gallon, he moved on to my 150 which he owned. He had great color and never bothered the other fish (unless they messed with him :) )

I still miss the little guy. :)

[nmrsco]

kribs are my favorite

[manitu710]

Discus All The Way Most Colorful Freshwater

Well What Can I Say I Love Them

[moondreamer7]

The Midas for sure! (the one I have is very close buddies with one of my cats LOL)

Angels and Discus tied for a very very close second.

And a really close third is the Severum.
