Hey Folks, anyone know anything about this Cichlid? I started to stock my 50gal Central American Cichlid tank. I added 1- Blue Dempsey, 1 Fire Mouth ( aureus blue ) and 1 Nicaraguen (copora nicaraguense). They are all about 2" and where added all at once. That was one week ago and everything was fine for the first 2 days. Then the Firemouth started after the Nic. to the point that for the past 4 days the Nic. has been hiding behind the water discharge flange on one of the two Emperor 280's filtering the tank. The tank has 8 Buenes Aries Tetras as dither fish and I have left the lights off for the last day and one half ( just using the room lights) to no avail. Anyone know if this is the normal sorting out and will change over time or should I move him soon? The problem with moving him now is the only tank ready now is my 55gal community tank with 24 Tetras, 2 Corys, 1 Angelfish and two SAE's. If I move him in there what is he going to do to those fish? Any advice would be appreciated. Keith
