New cichlid tank

[Ruyuna]

Hey! So it's been a really long time since we've had a tank with any cichlids. We're doing a 55gal rectangle tank. Can anyone let me know if they've had experience with the following cichlids and if they can live together just fine. I've done a bit of research so far, but the planning stage is what's happening now.

All Male starting at 1-2 inch:
Apache Peacock
Lemon Jake Peacock
Taiwan Reef Cichlid
Albino Firefish
Benga Yellow Peacock
Eureka Red Jake
Blue Neon Undu Flavescent
Lethrinops Intermedius
Lupingu Ivory Mloto
Sulfur Head Peacock
Super Red Bushynose Pleco
Featherfin Catfish

Thanks in advance!

Different male peacock cichlids from Lake Malawi usually get along fine as long as there's no females in the tank. No idea about the others.

Make sure the GH is around 300ppm and the pH is between 7.6 & 8.5.

You should cycle the filters before you get fish so they don't get ammonia poisoning due to the high pH. It will also allow you to add all the fish at the same time so they can all find a space to sleep.
