I am liking me some Starry Night Cichlid fish.

I've got MTS in the making I think.

Paratilapia polleni 'large spot'??  (formerly P. bleekeri )

That's definitely a good choice of species.  Somewhat big, very personable,  interactive & beautiful.  ;)

Here's a video of mine... https://youtu.be/4SNYksPdYXg

I agree they are a great species, I've kept both the large spot "Andapa" and the small spot.

They are great, I have a 7" one I got from Wayne. it has a lot of personality. Outside of my venues, it's the most personable fish I have.
