Ok so i have only just recently started researching these guys so i may be off on whether or not they would be suitable in my tank. Currently i have a 20 gallon long (30x12x12") that i have started my first low light/tech planted tank in. Was origonally going to do a community tank with rummynose tetras and corries, and have 6 rummys in there now. But i find cichlids much more interesting then the little schoolers and started thinking about more personable options for such a small tank. I am aware that with these i would need to rehome the tetras
So previously i had thought these were shelldwellers, but it turns out they live in a rocky environment? So would they do ok in a planted tank with pool filter sand, as it sits currently? Or is it like my mbuna where they need the rocky caves? And would they be ok in this small of a tank?
For those who have raised them, do they have good personality? I like the quirky nature of my mbuna africans and im after something that could be in a smaller tank and still have the personality
