How big is the tank and what species do you have now? It's hard to suggest fish when we have no information at all.

They grow very slowly. If you're getting a 180 gallon, that should be fine, but be wary of adding small Clown Loaches in with established mbuna.

Now - what species of mbuna do you have? There's no point trying to recommend cichlids to add without knowing what you have now.

Clown loaches are pretty slow growers, I do know that. However, there are African catfish that would go better with your Mbuna tank. I think that a Synodontis Eupterus would work out well in that tank, especially since they do just fine in a high pH.
