The Brooklyn Aquarium Society should be the first to give Cichlasoma araguaiense a common name. No noe cares about this "poor cousin" of the South American cichlid world. See pictures at Images of "Cichlasoma araguaiense." Enter your submission as a reply to this thread, and then we will put the names up for a vote at the September meeting. Serious suggestions only please.

By the way, there is no good definition for "araguaiense," but Aragua is a city where it is found, so I am proposing the Common Name "Aragua Cichlid."
