Hi,
I am relatively new to the hobby and I am thoroughly enjoying myself!
I have a pretty well established 29 gallon tank with about 20 sm - med
size african cichlids of various sorts. I was wondering if other
creatures (any species of crabs, shellfish, eel, etc.) can live in the
same pH or tank (perhaps after adjusting them to it with a drip) as the
cichlids.
Thanks for any and all help!
Dave

PS I have no interest in breeding if that makes any difference I am not
sure.

Thanks again!



How about a North American Carp, the largest ever caught was about 35
feet (~10.66 meters) long, be sure to get 2 so it does not get lonely.

You already have ~140 inches of adult fish in a 29 gallon aquarium.

There are very few "african cichlids of various sorts" that can be
housed in such a short aquarium.
