ok thanks ed!, i have definately moved past the 55g idea, and am
looking now at at least a 75, but mostlikely a 90+ tank. as for
gouramis, those are in my 29g tank, and theres no cichlids in there,
just 2 dwarf gouramis, 3 pygmy gouramis, 5 zebra danios and 3 serpae
tetras. i do not have any cichlids in the house at the moment, i am
planning on getting some after i get a big tank and it is cycled. and
as of right now, i was planning on getting about 6 JD's to try and
breed them, but i just do not have enough "grow out" tanks. so i am
looking for cichlids that can mix.i was thinking maybe some convicts,
and/or and couple oscars, with plans for another 55ish tank that i
could move the oscars into when ever the convicts breed, or a tank
divider.

Hi Dave, I used to have a 125 gallon mixed south american chiclid tank.
A lot of these fish can be mixed, but make no mistake even a 55 gallon
tank is not that big to these fish. I read that you have gouramies with
your chiclids, unless there large gouramies they will eventually be
outgrown by your chiclids. Bala sharks are not an aggresive fish, they
may be bullied by larger fish.If you need any other advice or help you
can post here(I check stuff here about every week) or write me direct
under the subject matter "Tropical Fish"
Good Luck, Ed
