African Cichlid Compatability

[Phil Bassett]

Hi,

I am thinking of starting to keep Malawi cichlids in mt 36" tank. I have
been doing some research to see if the fish I currently have will be
compatible and have found that most of them are. The only concern I am left
with is the two Gourami I have (red dwarf & yellow) will be ok! Does anyone
have any ideas/experience with this?

Thanks,

Phil

They prefer softer water than the africans, and I think they might get
harrased.

I have never kept them together, but have kept both types seperately.

I wouldn't keep Malawies with Guramies - it would probably mean death for
your Guramies!
