om...
Is there a cichlid that fits this description
1) Thrives and breeds in a 10-20 gallon long tank
2) Easy to sell to LFS
3) Breeds with lots of babies

Thanks

The N. brichardi would work as John suggested. Other options would be:

Julidochromis transcriptus

Lamprologus multifasciatus
http://www.amateurcichlids.com/fish/...asciatus.shtml
Lamprologus similis - See link to multifasciatus. Simlar in size and
behavior. Similis tend to like rocks more although are still found among
shell beds in some areas.
Lamprologus brevis -

article on brevis shortly.
Telmatachromis temporalis "shell" -

If you have naturally soft water with a low pH,

Look at:
Apistogramma's
Keyhole Cichlids
Laetacara curviceps - http://www.amateurcichlids.com/fish/l_curviceps.shtml

I'd avoid the Jewels in anything smaller than a 20 long.

I'd avoid the convicts also. They're numerous and fry are often difficult to
offload.
Kribensis, like the Jewels would be better off in a 20 gallon long.
