Post Most Underappreciated Malawi Genus

 
What do you think is the most underappreciated genus of the Malawi species? I have a couple ideas, but would love to hear others' thoughts.

I would have to go with the copadichromis and lethrinops species.

Thanks guys, those are good choices. I was at an auction last year and the auctioneer starting selling a bag of tropheops as tropheus. The bidding went quite high, apparently, everyone thinking they were tropheus. I hope the winner knew what he was getting. I think Lethrinops are starting to get the appreciation they deserve, as I'm starting to see more of these around.

That has to suck big time. I bet the seller was happy.

I often confuse the two of them. I am more into the tropheus than the tropheops. I agree that the lethrinops are becoming more in vogue. There are quite a few malawian genus that are rarely seen in the hobby.
