If youre set on cichlids in a 10, I think shell dwellers are the only way to go. I currently have some in a 10 right now. Theyre aggressive little :censor: so make sure you have a female and a male and they are the same size. Each male needs at least 1 square foot of floor space if not more. And alot of hiding spaces. For little fish they like a good amount of space however in my case.
See if you can at least get a 20 long for cichlids. A 10 is better for smaller less aggressive fish IMO.
