murgus Small Fry Posts: 3 Kudos: 2 Votes: 0 Registered: 12-Sep-2005	Hi all, I am thinking of putting cichlids in my new 35 gallon aquarium (36"w x 12"d x 18"t). I am hoping someone could give me an idea or two on which (and how many) cichlids would work the best. Would something like this work? - 3 Labidochromis - 3 Cynotilapia - 3 Copadichromis - 6 rainbows or danios - 1-2 dwarf Plecostomus Thanks, murgus

As for Rainbows/Danios, you don't need them and if you want cichlids I'd leave them out to allow more room for cichlids. Your best bet will be Labidochromis Caeruleus (Electric Yellows) with say Ps. Acei. When you say Cynotilapia, I assume you mean The Afra's. which would also be O.K. in with the yellows... Your limited to about 6 fish however due to the tank size. And be sure to pile in the rocks to give them plenty of caves and hiding places Last edited by mr_cichlid at 22-Sep-2005 15:36
