So I advise against it. But if you go for it, remember it
is mildly agressive mbuna, and best gender combination
would be 1+3 or 2+5.

tank size: 350L, the big fishes will be transfered to another tank,for
the moment they are still young and small.


Yeah, OK, but there still is a problem of diet.

About selecting fishes: how to select vigorous males, how to select
vigorous females?


It is hard to say, since you need a long time for that, and
maybe it can't be done in the shop, especially if shop tank is
crowded. The best way is to buy more fish than you intend
to keep, and make a selection later. But remember, that
mpanga can be much harder to catch, especially in rocky
tank, than cauerelus or non-mbuna fish. Be prepared to
remove rocks or build a fish trap.
