We were told they were convicts, although i've just googled that to check and discovered they are from central America but I know these were bought from A5 aquatics as Malawi. 6 have the telltale convict stripes and one is white. All from the same batch of babies and taken from my mother in...

help on behalf of my mother in law. she has 5 lake malawi cichlids and has had conflicting views on whether or not she can put anything else in with them?

we have recently just added 4 neon tetras to our tank and have noticed that 2 are them are much fatter underneath than the other 2. i am told than tetras are not livebearers so cannot be pregnant but am unsure if this is normal for these fish or if there is something wrong?

i did mean neons yes. might start with some mollies then and see how it goes. thanks for your much needed advice. fingers crossed.

ammonia readng just taken is between 0 and 0.25 is this ok? we were thinking maybe some guppys and tetras(at the same time) to start the tank off and then later maybe some mollys. dwarf gouramis and maybe an algea eater or 2

am new to fish keeping and have just started my 180L tank. my nitrates are 20, nitrites 0 and ph is 7(and have been stable for 3 days now) but my water is still slightly cloudy (white). is it safe to add some hardy fish yet or do i need to wait until the water had de-clouded? please help
