Tank Mates

Having cichlids co-exist peacefully is a challange. It's trail and error. Again having a big tank is the most important factor for territories and it's not good to have it overcrowded, that is just for Africans.

For me I have found a balance. If you have any question on what species can go with another species just email me.
