47 gallon tall african cichlid tank options

[Nathanpopp]

I have a 47 tall tank with nothing in it. Obviously cycled. What african cichlids can go in it?

Is that a 36" long tank?

 

[Nathanpopp]

Yes it is

Anything listed here http://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/quick_reference_list.php on the 10,20 or 29 gallon setups. Or you can go with anything under 4" but I'd keep it simple like 5 afra cobue or something

None of my LFS sell those I've already checked.

Yellows labs, red zebras, blue colbalts, .. 3 or 4 of each! Try for 2 females of each type, along with one male of each! These 3 are not as aggressive , as some of the other Africans! Make sure there is plenty of rock work, caves ect.. water changes every week! Great color in all three! Great combination! Good luck !
