I've never had cichlids in a tank that small. Acei get pretty big, and a 32gal just doesn't have a ton of swimming space, especially with 8 other similarly sized fish.

I agree with malkore about the size issue. i have a 55 gallon cichlid tank and they dont seem to be doing to bad. u also have to remember territory issues. if u do not have alot of swimming apaces the cichlids will become very agressive having no place to call there own. oh and good luck finding the Pseudotropheus Acei Ngara lol i have been looking for over a year not in fish stores and have yet to see one.
