Hi everybody!! Time to tank with the big boys.. it's going to be 75 gal, pfs, some choice rock and dw, maybe one or 2 plants and a big dude or few med dudes?? Def. Sa/ca no lakes.. i just had a look at the lfs... so far I really like the blue acara, red spot severum and talked with the guy about a paratilapia bleekeri for a while, seems like a little hellion?? Experience? Thoughts? I'm totally up for ordering from a trusted breeder. I do like to support my local lfs when possible..

A pair of severums with a heckelii. Then a super large school of peaceful tetra. Severums are what got me started in the sa/ca cichlids.

This is my some day pair in my some day 6'x2' tank.
 
I don't want the nasty time though.. I'm officially over attitudes so silent splendor will do just fine here..

Should be good. I thought you would go for the hecklii due to the resemblance of a ram. Just remember that most rainbows get huge. Most only see them when small. I would do the congos.
