Fish Crazy
Hey guys, I haven't posted on here in a while, but need some help!
Not sure if i should put this in the cichlid forums or not, but it seems more a general question (mods feel free to move).
Anyway, I recently sold my silver dollars and cleaned out my 2ft (80L) tank and am looking to fill it with some smaller cichlids; I work in a pet shop and take care of the fish room there so i know (what i like to think) is most basic information as far as which species will live together, however when it comes to dwarf and smaller variety cichlids I'm a bit lost.
So basically what I'm asking is for someone to help compile a list of suitable species of cichlid (probably African) that will thrive in a tank this size and which other species they are compatible with. I have it filled with Calcium Carbonate stone to help keep the PH high and it is filled with slate and sandstone for decorative effect so it would be suitable for burrowing fish.
I was thinking something along the lines of Kribensis and Electric Yellow's but possibly Princess Cichlid's; anyone able to offer some assistance?
Cheers
