I got new cichlids yesterday!! I never had them before because I have only had community and goldfish. Could anybody give advice on cichlids?
I got 2 jewel cichlid(dont know gender), and some small assorted africans.
----One is blackish-dark bluish and when scared/stressed it turns greyish with blackish vertical stripes.
----One is small and yellow with horizontal black and white stripes.
----One is pale bluish greyish with slighty darker stripes.
Can anyone ID these?
I am keeping all of them in a 20gal x-tall with a tough skunk loach. The pH is 8.0 and I dont know the dH. I have 2 flower pots--the hole in the top on 1 is about an inch and the other is about 4". Today Im going to buy lots of slate to build caves and such.

In my other tank I have a bunch of amazon swords. Many of the leaves look like green mesh. What is wrong with them?
Thanks!
