Cichlids In 60 Litre Tank

[hjb]

Hi,

I was wondering if in my 60 litre tank there are any cichlids i could have with kuhli loaches.

I really like the look of german blue rams but don't know if this would be ok?

I have heard of kribs aswell but don't know about these!

Thanks

Any replies would be gratefull!

Soft sandy substrate with plenty of depht and hiding spots you should be able to keep those loaches happy in a 60 litre. Im afraid rams wont be happy in a 60 litre. Try shrimps, scarlet badis, guppies and micro crabs

I was going to use play sand if that is ok and i will wash it before i put it in.

how many scarlet badis could i have in there. I like the look of these!

Could i have a pair of lyretail panchax killifish in there with a pair of Cockatoo Dwarf Cichlids and 6 kuhli loaches. i dont know if these get along but they look very nice!

I love my kribensis but to be honest, kribs get a bit large for a 60 litre tank. The GBR would probably be a better choice but you need to be aware that males are territorial. That means 1 male and maybe 2 female rams maximum.
