They haven't spawned yet though, they might get cranky when that happens. Mine are about an inch right now but the get about three inches or so. A 10 might be a little small. when cichlids feel crowded they get testy. Mine are in a 29 with 2 angels, 4 guppies and 2 small firemouths that will get a tank of their own once they grow some.

The Bolivian Ram is much easier to keep and I have seen them in pH up to 8.0, they will not spawn though until you lower there pH. Later and Good Luck
