ive decided that i want to collect mbunas but ive got a tank that is 3 foot by 14'' by 14'' how many will i fit into this tank?
ive read that it is best to over stock with mbunas but how many would that be in an aquarium of the forementioned size?

Mbuna isn't a fish; it's a several familiy of species from Lake Malawi. Your 30gallon isn't big enough to stock 6-8 mbunas. 60 gallon+ aquarium is a good choice, as you'll get a lot more options for fish. 55gallon is a fairly typical size, and isn't too expensive. In US, it cost around $200 for the tank, hood, accessories, and filter. But, if you're a beginner, I would suggest buying a used aquarium. Look for it in the classified section. It's a lot cheaper that way, if you later decide that african cichlids aren't for you.
