what to add?

[thekrib]

i know this sounds like too much, but when you add up the inches it really isnt. so dont go off on how i shouldnt add anything cause i have too many fish already please. :)

its a 6 ft. 129 gallon tank with rockwork.

3 N. brichardi "Fulwe Rock" blue face
2 A. stuartgranti Maleri Chipoka
2 A. "Albino Eurika Red'
2 A. "Albino Ruby Red"
4 S. eupteris
2 S. multipunctatus
5 C. leptosoma Blue Flash "Isanga"
2 L. occelatus gold
2 L. brevis sunspot
1 zebra red tail loach
2 N. leleupi bright orange
2 bristle nose plecos (albino)
1 candy stripe goby
4 Astatotilapia nubilus

all these fish are juvenile-subadult the tank is peaceful, except the dominant male cyp is pretty mean to the other 4 (hoping to get 6-8 more but they arent available).

what should i add that would be very cool, it doesnt have to be cichlid. this is a show tank, and as you can see im not worried about mixing locations. any part of the world is ok.

ANY suggestions on what you would put in would be great.

How about this one.

Haplochromis (Xystichromis) phytophagus or "Xmas Fulu"

ahh the Xmas fulu...very nice....that one has nicely defined feature....often I hear ppl mistaking them for thinkskins....or though I have done it once...

Albino bristlenose? I would love to see a picture....

the A. nubilus are victorian too, will they crossbreed, i already have a mouthfull with the nubilus, and know they are pure, because none of the other fish will cross.

that is a hap and the nubilus arent, but they have the same shape only different colors.

will they x-breed?

thanks, any other suggestions?

I don't know about Victorians whether they cross breed or not.
Edit: I have read upon Victorians and it seems they cross breed pretty easy. In that case the "Fulu" would not be an option to add.
In general cross breed is due to the lack or shortage of females of their own species. Therefore it is recomanded to keep Africans with a ratio of 1 male and 3, or at least 2 females to reduce that possibility. Also differences in coloration between females of different species is an important point to look at. (In your tank I think it's more likely the Alonocaras will cross breed)

i will not be raising whatever fry turn out from the peacocks, i will just let them spit in the tank.
