Fish Tank Setup

lol, a beginner starting with malawi cichlids i bet he hasnt even a clue about Ph. If its 55 gal then yes ok, providing you know the requirements of these fish and that you will find it hard to control aggression, they require a huge filter in order to add more fish to balance out the aggressive attitude

huh, i am not a beginner just because i have only just joined this tropical fish forum, i have had other tropical fish such as oscars, eels, Purana's

humm.

####, i do have other fish tanks other than a 55 litre tank

well then surely you'd know that when we say no malawi's then the answer is no, not just 5 or whatever, they are aggressive cichlids as is an oscar

Just buy a bigger tank if you must have the malawis...doing research before hand won't lead you to situations like these
