i have . 2 kribs, 4 gouramis, 3 flying foxes,1 firemouth .. can they go with yellow labs?
 
Quite simply no, even though labs are pretty tame for mbuna they are still aggressive not to mention the water stats for all those fish is different you already have 2 types of cichlid which are not normally mixed adding a third is just asking for trouble.
 
This is getting silly, every day you have new fish, take fish back, change your tank, want new fish....Settle for one set of fish and go with it. Adding Kribs, taking them out, putting in Convicts, taking them out isnt good for your tank or for the fish themselves.

If you want Kribs and Firemouths, excellent, if you want Mbuna's great, but you simply cant keep adding and taking fish out willy nilly
:no:

I agree. As I've said before, you need to *slow down*. Develop a stocking plan and stick to it! Otherwise you're just going to end up wasting time and money, not to mention fish.

Besides, the water needs of a yellow lab are completely different than that of your other fish. Kribs are pretty much the only African cichlids with the same water requirements as the NW cichlids.
