Ok, my list of New World Cichlids pales in comparison to peifc's and AikidoGuy's, but here it is (they're all small guys):

Pair of Archocentrus nigrofasciatus (Convicts)
Pair of Apistogramma Cacautoides (triple red male)
Some young Apistogramma Pandurini
 
one male angel I saved from starvation, I did the best I could but he is only 2/3 full size and is full grown. he was the runt at the fish store and has a lovely personality

pterophyllum scalar or spelled something like that lol
 
Right now,

1 Green Terror (gold saum)
1 Jack Dempsey
1 Green Severum

4 small H. carpintis (hoping for a breeding pair)

I should have a group of 5-6 juvi firemouths (T. meeki) in about 10 days.

Hopefully the LFS can get in some A. sajica and maybe some nicaraguense in for me..already have a cycled tank for the sajica.
 
2 breeding pairs of discus, 6 juveniles.
1 ? pair angels male is silver and ? female is gold.
