Hello Again!
I've left my south Americans and moved into African cichlids. i have a 55 (4 foot) gallon Tank with 850 gph total filtration. my parameters are good, and have my rockwork all set and ready for fish. this afternoon i bought four electric yellow lab cichlids (gender unknown) about 1.5 inches, and 1 male blue johanni the same size. Now before i have to re arrange the whole tank to add more fish, id like to get some more fish quickly, my lfs has what they have a "ice blue red top cichlid" which looks like an albino version of whatever i could find on the internet, i believe its a peacock, and its about 4 inches long. they have an aurora which i didn't think would work well, and a few more full grown africans. going off what i have now, would i be able to add the albino ice blue red top? and what other species should i look for or even order. the lady at the lfs was trying to talk me into buying one of those blue dolphin cichlids but i believe i read a 55 gallon is no good for them, any opinions on that? thanks in advance for all answers =)
