Could I do a key hole cichlid? Some Bloodfin tetra?

Any chance of apistogrammas or not with the rams? And would it be best to get another pearl gourami if I can work out which sex this one is? I know you're not meant to have 2 males together but a male and a female?

Would I be able to have an angle in there or would it fight with the others too much? The gourami is quite territorial. Ill look these fish up thanks :)

Okay thanks. It's a shame, I love my pleco but she's so scared of everything, barely see her anymore lol

I'm upgrading my tropicals from a 138 litre tank to a 180 litre (40 gallon?) bow front. Currently I have 1 bn pleco 4 albino cories 2 rams (they were sold as German blue but I'm not convinced) 1 pearl gourami. Would like to add a few panda cories too. Would it be possible to add another small...

Hey I desperately need some advice please, So after getting rid of all of the fish (14 cichlids) from our 180(?) litre tank about 3 weeks ago due to needing to sell one of our 3 tanks I then got a shock today. The tank has been left set up since with about 1/4 of the old water in the bottom...

Any ideas for this one?

Oh good call! I think it could be a red zebra you know. So why would he be such a yellow instead of orangey colour? Stress? Sorry night light is on in picture

Also I'm thinking Kyoga flameback?? Although he doesn't have certain patters on his fins

I'm thinking could the yellow one be like part yellow lab part Kenyi? From what I've read online it looks like you can get hybrids of them. Maybe he is that?

Thanks for replying. To be honest that's what I was thinking of doing, just need to convince my flatmate cos really they're his fish. So do you think the others will be okay today if I get rid of the yellow lab and the ahlis? The others seem a lot more laid back. So then there would just be 1...

Unfortunately he died during the night :( atleast we tried. Now i'm just desperately trying to sort out the aggression problems in the main cichlid tank. The person who we got the tank from yesterday clearly didn't look into anything before buying it so everything has just been killing...

Ah god I don't know what to do! the Person who had this tank before us seriously didn't look into anything before buying it! The beaten up fish which was in a separate tank died last night but the ones in the cichlid tank are just beating eachother to death! The yellow one is the worst, it is...

Thank you for the replies. After googling pictures i definitely agree the blue one looks like a blue ahli. Not sure about the sunshine peacock because if it is then its not very coloured up at the moment. And is there anything else the yellow one could be? It's pretty big, biggest in the...

And this is the one which was bullied so he's seperate and colours aren't great. He looks like he's going blue though

Last one. There's two of the bright blue one

This is the aggressive one mainly

Here's one

So as I sort of explained in my other post.. My flatmate went to pick me up a new bigger tank today for my tropical fish to go in from a family member, when he got there he called me to say the tank already had cichlids in it, weve always wanted them so decided to take the tank anyway as my...

Looking a bit better

Okay thank you. on second thoughts, hes gone from yellow and is gradually going blue. We think hes a zebra cichlid possible. will post another picture from a minute ago x

He's already coloured up a lot and is swimming much more now he's on his own. Fingers crossed he makes it but ill be surprised :( beautiful fish though, I'm so excited to finally have cichlids. Anyone know that stuff you can buy to add to the water to help fish heal? He's pretty battered, fins...

Well my flatmate went and bought a little tank (literally like a goldfish bowl) whist I was at work and it's currently in that. It has a heater and a bubble stone at the moment and something for it to hide in. I'll be very surprised if he lives through the night, he'd clearly been really beaten...

I don't have a spare tank for just him. He's in a bad way and isn't strong at all. He's been in the tropical tank for a few minutes and hasn't started on anything but my gourami is chasing him
