    Can someone please ID my new cichlid for me?

    Traded my 5-6inch oscar for this guy the other day. Not the best of trades but didn't want a fish that is as messy and gets as big. It was labeled as a M. Johanni.

    Setting up my 20g and was just wondering how long I should leave my penguin 330 in my 46g to seed it then stick it in the 20? Better yet, I can just put new filters in my 350 penguin, and then stick the old filters into the 330 and put it into the 20g right? Add a fish or two and keep an eye on...
