what's the best Firebird IDE? [closed]

Simple question. I'm considering Firebird and SQLite for an upcoming project. SQLite has SQLite Administrator, which is pretty good but gets +1M because it has autocomplete. But Firebird supports FKs, so I'm more comfortable with it. I'm leaning toward Firebird right now.

What is your favorite Firebird IDE and why?

Edit: Personally, I'll be gravitating toward the free ones because I'm not making much on this project. But I'll leave the question as is.
