in my 190ltr i will be left with the following

2 cupid cichlids
4 denisonii barb
5 celebe rainbows
4 german rams
2 cocaktoo cichlids
1 bristlenose

could i then add 2 firemouth cichlids?
 
I know cichlids like to set up territories and I know that if you overstock you won't get much (if any) aggression out of them. Saying that, I'm not sure if the same applys to different species. Normally you can only keep 2 cichlids (of the same species) because of the territories they set up but having that many cichlids even if they are different species I'm not too sure about. I don't know if having a different species means you can keep more cichlids or whether it means you would get too much aggression. If that makes any sense :lol:

it would only be like this for another year as this time next year i will be getting a bigger tank so they will have more space.

i dont really have any probelms with territories at the moment with what i have, well except with the kribs but i havent put them on the list as they are going in the next few days.
