Chocolate Cichlids are beautiful too.
Yeah they are, not so much chocolate color, but a reddish pink,
somewhat orange too.... very nice looking active, but not TOO
aggressive either
Funny, Aquarium magazine article on them says they are aggressive..

In my experience, chocolate cichlids are "sneaky aggressive". They are
somewhat reclusive (preferring a low light aquarium), so you will
generally not see them chasing fish around the way a Central American
cichlid might. However, when you are not looking, they will slowly pick
apart a vulnerable fish they do not like. Also, somewhat like Oscars,
they are very food-oriented and will be aggressive during feeding time.
