    Check out these Emperor Cichlids, at full size they are 36" long and probably one of the best looking fish out there!

    man, thats one nasty fish...I'd hate to be a scuba diver and come across their hideout! Totally loving the color, the sorta remind me of the yellow labs in a way...& I loved them when I had them.
