regardless of what you keep, If they have struck a balance, and all get on,
leave well alone. Just be content with them as they are. No point in
starting a riot.
A while ago a friend of mine had this display, in the front Waiting room
of his office, 6 foot tank, Cichlids, fully planted, hiding holes made of
fake rock, etc. The thing looked a million dollars, and he told me that
people used to come into the office just to look at his fish.
The next time I went in , There was this 6 inch Oscar, the tank was a
complete wreck, Half the fish where missing and every bit of greenery was
floating on the top of the tank. He had bought the Oscar 3 days earlier,
Don't ask me what happened to the Oscar, but I think it was returned from
wence it came. And the Show tank, was never the same again.

I tried to do all that I read and heard to keep everyone happy...NOT! I

followed the explicit directions of the store owner. He appeared to be a
Cichlid expert, I did this:

Any other advice appreciated.



At first glance, this post appears to be the post from someone
looking to start a flamewar. Otherwise known as a troll. You go out or
your way to say you ignored anything you read and ignored any advice
you've gotten. You've gone to a newsgroup where people are sometimes over
sentimental when it comes to their fish and stated how funny it was to
see them in chaos and attacking each other. For some reason, I find it
hard to believe you would appreciate any advice that would be offered.
*shrug*
Just my impression. Enjoy your fish.

Hmm...didn't look like a troll to me. I was wondering if they're
Tanganyikans. Those fit fine in a 30 gallon tank. And N leleupi can be
orange and very mean.
