Welcome to AA! Depending on the cichlids 13 in a 55 may be too many. How big are they are what species?

Just wanted to give you a big hello and welcome - you will make a lot of friends in the fish world here -- I did - I'm a newbie here myself - I don't know much about African fish -- In fact I can tell you honestly that aside from them being very pretty fish - I know nothing about them -- But look around the forums and ask questions - the people know their stuff and really want to help Welcome again and good luck with you tank.

Hi ricky, welcome to AA.

As to your question about buying cichlids online, you can definitely do it, but if you have a LFS (local fish store) that can get you what you want for comparable prices, I'd suggest getting them there to save them the stress of moving.

Lots of people do buy livestock online though so I suppose it's alright.
