So I've got a 55 gal tank cycling and I had 2 set ups in mind. One of them everyone keeps telling me is not going to work, so I'm considering doing a cichlid tank.
I'm curious as to what stocking some of the more seasoned cichlid keepers recommend.
So far I like the blue jack dempsey, green terror, tiger oscar, red devil, and rams.
It'd be ideal to have a couple big burly ones (8 inch or so?) and a handful of smaller ones - maybe gbr or something - I like the yellow ones or duboisi but those are african cichlids and you're not supposed to mix those with new world ones, right?
Also, I'd like to have a good sized pleco, but I think they do pretty well with cichlids, so I'm not too worried there.
Suggestions?
Advice?
