Malawi An Tropheus

[Becks1985]

Was wondering does anyone keep Malawi cichlids an tropheus firecrackers together...I really like the firecrackers an was wondering could I add a few to my malawi tank??

Tropheus are normally kept in 12+ groups in 6-foot or greater tanks, they are very aggressive within their social group and need a strict veggie diet to prevent fatal "bloat."
 
Maybe kiriyama is still active on here, he has kept Tropheus for a few years.

Ok thanks..
I usually only feed my malawi cichlids spirluina flakes an new life spectrum pellets...
Are you saying that they would be more aggressive than the other fish...
