I went to the lfs and brought a flag fish, paradise fish and then i seen a bunch of little Aruatus cichlids, seeing as i already had a large male and his female was attacked by another fish (accident) so i brought her and brang her home, she was chased into hiding by my midas and other cichlids but now she is cool and my large male is already chaseing her around and vibrating on her so it looks like it all turned out good, lets just hope it stays as a female :)
 
i would add a few more females. this will help to ensure that the lone female is not overly harrassed by the male. auratus are harem brooders. a minimum of 3 females for every male is recommended.

also. would not keep the new worlds with the africans. their dietary needs can cause problems. africans are herbivores, too much protein in their diet can lead to bloat. midas need protein in their diet.
