It seems to be a universal consensus that overstocking curbs aggression. I have a 55 gallon with 14 cichlids and 2 synodontis cats. How much overstocking should I be doing? Here's a list of my current stock.
2 yellow lab
1 johanni
1 red zebra
1 rusty
1 venustus
1 frontosa
1 what's been ID'd as a perlmuth
1 yellow fin mbamba
1 acei
1 OB peacock
1 Jacobfriebergi
2 unidentifiable peacocks
2 synodontis cats
Please keep in mind this is my first crack at an African tank. I understand the frontosa probably shouldn't be in there but he seems to be doing quite well. The average fish size is about 1.5-2".
