Tankmate ?

What would be a good tank mate for a yellow lab ?

How big is the tank?

depends on how big the tank is, but if your tank is big enough (55g+) senegal bichirs or ropefish do really well with African Cichlids as well as bristlenose pleco, other then that I'm not sure other than more African Cichlids

maybe a couple Iodotropheus sprengerae (Rusty Cichlids) they are small mild mannered mbuna that only grow to about 3 inches

no problem, also Pseudotropheus saulosi (dwarf-mbuna) could work females are yellow-orange and males have dark on light blue barring and they only get to about 3" also

I decided to get another lab

But he's a big one

Nice im sure you could put around 5 labs in there without it being overstocked, and maybe an electric blue crawfish they are really cool just make sure it has a good hiding spot that is not easily accessible to the fish for when he molts (mine got eaten after his 2nd molt due to me not giving him a good hiding spot because I thought he looked tough haha
