I was getting bored of my fish i have now and my LFS has some really beautiful cichlids. Both of my LFS's have basicly no variety of non agressive community fish. Also one thing i found to be cruel is seeing a 14 inch pleco in a 10 gallon tank.
and a Herbivore pirana. It is kept with the platy fry in a 29 gallon tank. Ferry interesting fish. Well the cichlids one of my stores has looks really cool. It's kinda a lighter brown or cream color with blue eyes and a cool blue stripe down its lateral line. I feel sorry for it becuase its been in there for almost 6 months. Back to topic- what can i do with the fish? Give them to a LFS or get a new tank?
 
get a new tank! always a good reason to get a new tank!

do you know the names of any of the cichlids that you are interested in?

the herbivore piranha could be a pacu. unless you want a REALLY big tank stay away. even though they have been classed as a herbivore they are a cousin to the piranha. it will eat small fish and fry. vegetation is it's main staple though. loves to munch on plants. also can get up to 3' fully grown and needs tall tanks as it is wide bodied.

if you can get the scientific name it would help tremendously. trade names vary depending on who you are talking to. not very efficient.
