Hello,

I'm going to be setting up a 20 gallon freshwater tank soon, and I'd REALLY love to get some cichlids! I know the tank is to small for most types, but I've been looking into maybe some Keyholes? I've read that a pair could go into a 20 without too many problems, as long as there are hiding areas for the female if they mate! Is this true? Also, I've read that dither fish might be helpful, but I feel like putting dithers in would overstock it. Is it a good plan to put in dithers, or no? If so, what would you suggest? Thanks for the help:)
