    Plants and green Severum

    Not only do they enjoy eating them, they and the Acara, and most cichlids will dig them up and then they are left floating.. most cichlids like to dig and soft for food in the substrate or just her rid of pent up aggression.. Not saying they all will.. You may get a sevrum that disregards them...

    Convict fry

    The other cichlids will get to them at some point.. would take the breeding pair and put in a 20 gallon long if you are considering keeping the fry to sell or what.. I know that convicts are awesome and ferocious parents.. But knowing cichlids.. Some fry drift.. It will be food

    Big Box Chain Store "inch-per-gallon" rule, what do you think?

    I believe depending on the species.. If there is enough filtration it would be fine.. I don't know but don't believe platys are seriously territorial are they?

    Ph level

    Africans and South American come from completely different pH. However the South American usually like lower pH and Africans higher.. so weird the African cichlids would be the ones to survive unless they were aggressive to the Green Terror, and they could be because they are far more aggressive...

    New to cichlids!

    If doing African cichlids. There are so many options.. Just Google them.. they like rocks with tons of space to take on their own.. South American are a bit different in that they need slightly different water parameters and grow quite large.. Mbuna, they say to put many in to disperse the...

    Finally done

    I like it.. Should their be ventilation though? Maybe if it should. You could drill a longer of holes.. Won't be bad to look at and add air flow for oxygen? I may be wrong though.. Like the look
