Hi everyone
My question is if somebody can help,
Can i keep more the one male together in the same tank.
Tank size is 200 gallons.
 
Male Cichlids will fight for territory, and may eventually kill each other. For this reason, if you have a smaller tank, you should only keep one single male Cichlid.
It is important to avoid keeping species that are similarly aggressive in the same tank (aggression normally occurs in Cichlid species that are closely related). The more distantly-related the fish, the less likely they will become aggressive with each other.
