That's what I was thinking. Scolofi wouldn't go at all with the first group you mentioned? I was hoping to keep four species with one male to 3 female ratios. Any suggestions?? Also which acei would go better, white or yellow tail??
Edited my previous comment Scolofi should be in the first group. Sorry about that. However, Pseudotropheus socolofi and Pseudotropheus sp. "Acei" are of the same Genu. so be aware of the possibility of hybrids (Only if you don't want hybrids).
Yellow labs
Aceii Msuli
Rusty
Synodontis Peticola or Synodontis Multipunctatus (add some variety)
If you keep these 3 cichlids in this suggestion you may be able to get a rainbow shark in with them even a bristlenose pleco . I keep a male Ngara flametail and three females with the mix I listed above. Seeing as these are the gentler of the Mbuna it seems to work.
