Hello everyone, I'm new to cichlids, though I have had a n multifasciatus tank (20 long) for a bit now, and I love it. I have been doing research on other tanganyikan cichlids lately and this past week picked up a 60 gallon breeder tank (48"×18"×17") with the intent of creating a multispecies community. The only species that I am 100% set on having in this tank is gold head altolamprologus compressiceps, but was interested in hearing some input regarding 1 or possibly 2 species that might coexist well with them long term.
julidochromis? Lelupi? caudopunctatus? paracyprichromis nigripinnis? Alternative Dithers of some sort? This is intended to be a cool tank to watch behaviors of
2 or 3 species interacting amongstthemselves and or others, not a proper breeding project. I may get a couple of 40 breeders for breeding projects and or thinning out initial stocking as pairs form, but this is meant to be a show tank. Any suggestions and or advice regarding species, stocking numbers, and ratios would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to hearing from you, thanks everyone.
