While I do see the cool factor of mouthbrooding, I think just that one little fun thing they do isn't going to out-compete Oscars for overall personality.
Oscars x2 :]
you can pick 1 cichlid what species?

OK it's a mouthbrooder - "NEXT"! I have mouthbrooders also, just not those. So far I have to say my Oscars have won me over for personality although Dovii come in at a pretty close second.
Granny you picked two different species...cheater!
I pick my neolamprologus multifasciatus, hands down.

If we're going to compare fish to dogs, I would compare an oscar to a retriever. Sure I would like one, but since everyone seems to have them, they wouldn't by my first choice. I have four tanks all devoted to cichlids and do not have an oscar. If I ever had a 200 gallon tank or bigger then I'd get an oscar.
If I decided to breed cichlids and keep one species it would be a tough call between the Polleni and Green Terror. If I had to pick one, I'd go with the Polleni for it's unique color and shape. Also, I think cichlids in general have personality. My Texas cichlid does everything I've heard Oscars do.
