What African Cichlid Can I Put With Angel Fish?

I guess the topic speaks for itself.

I have 2 kribensis I think that's spelt wrong but close anuff I have a mating pair there really cool not meen at all

You spelt it right mate

It depends on the nature of each fish. I have had 2 pairs of Kribensis at different times. One pair were never any trouble, the others kept all other fish in the top corner. It's the look of the draw i'm afraid. If you're looking for a pair of dwarf cichlids then look at Bolivian Rams or Apisto's of some sort. They should go well with Angels.

I would also pass on putting anything African with SA just in case of potential trouble. Is there any particular reason you want to mix the two?

 

[joshrm115]

Yeah but what size r it angels? If there fully grown there is no way fully sized ribs could do a thing even when there breeding and lay eggs the two of them together can't stop my angels from eating there eggs... and my male Leon is is like 3 inches maybe a little bigger

I ment kribs on both those names auto spell check screwed me up

 

[minnnt]

Your kribs must be really placid then, my second pair would have stopped them no problem!

 

[joshrm115]

Did u actually have kribs with gull grown angels tho?

 

[minnnt]

The first pair no, the second more aggressive pair yes. Just my experience... you will inevitably do what ever you want no matter what is said here. Trial and error is the usual method for learning with fish keeping.

Well its a cheap mistake either way I could buy a pair at my lfs for Like 10 bucks so I would just give them back if it didn't work so i would definitly give it a try it should be fine in my experience, but who knows
