I have had this tank up and running for a year now started with 1 African cichlid and weekly added a few. The surprisingly get along fairly well. Once in a while they chase one or another for a brief second. They are my favorite fish because of the variety u can put together. Here is a list of fish in the tank 1 Domidio Compriceps(Eye Bitter),2 Placidochromis Phenochilus,1 Bumble Bee cichlid,1 Socolofi,2 White Top Afra Ahara (Dog Tooth),1 Red Zebra, 1 Borleyi, 1 Buccochromis,1 Red Empress,1 Lemon Jake, 1 Midnight Hueseri, 1 white Calvus, 1 Congo Black Calvus,3 Flame Backs, 1 Sp35 Tomato,1 Duboise Tropheus,1 Hequi, 1 Eureka Red Peacock,Red Tail Shark,Galaxy Pleco... A great collection to have. I wouldn't try to combine these same fish in a smaller tank because some of them like the Dog Tooth are very aggressive. Pics coming soon


Show me a fish that don't eat and I'll show you a sick fish
 
Thanks it took a few years to figure out that I liked African cichlids. Now that's all I keep. They are very active and a joy to watch. Also they seem very easy to care for. And they love to eat
 
WoW! Great display tank a lot of thought in there, Again great job!
