Have a 55 with about 8 mbuna right now. I'm wondering if I can add any other types of Malawis. Are haps and peacocks compatible? Or do I have to stick with only mbuna?

Ckennedy37 said:Some say it's a good idea to do all male tanks and others say not to. Same is said about mixing Mbuma peacocks and haps as well. In my 75g I have around 25 fish including juveniles and they are a mix of Mbumas peacocks and haps and the majority of them are all males and I have very few problems.

smithpants94 said:Maybe it's not a bumblebee then, I've had it for about a year and he's probably the most docile one I have.
