ok, I have a 55 gallon tank that was given to me, just cleaned it out(old cichlid tank-dank nasty...) and all looks fine. I was gonna start salt but I just have to give my auratus a new home from his 20 gallon. I need some suggestions. The twenty has flourite mix gravel with a live plant - could only keep one fish in that tank - too many fights. What should I expect or can I mix in with that type of fish in the 55 gallon? With more room should I still see some aggression? The fish is about three inches long - getting pretty big. What should I do for gravel in the new tank? Can I do sand? Should I just continue with the flourite mix-which i like the way it looks and the fish loves to move it all around the tank..Im kinda ranting here sorry...
Sand-yes/no
type of colorful/fun fish to watch to mix with auratus
55 gallon a good size for a cichlid tank?
thanks
Oh ya, would you worry about this crack in the center support in the 55gallon?(no pic?crack in plastic where center support T's off-minor crack...)
