I have a 55g tank and see a lot of information on mixing African and new world cichlids.
Currently I have only new world, but wanted to add a few African to add color.
I know the Ph is different, but it looks like online, I see people mixing them without problems.
What is the real issue with mixing them? The pet store I went to had all the fish in a ph of 7 anyway.
Can I use a buffer and change the ph to 7.4 to make them both happy?
Or is it just not a good idea ?
Currently I have 2 convicts , one jack Dempsey and a parrot fish.
Thanks for the help.
