My yo yo wont quit eating my amazon swords. Would it be possible to switch him to my 55g cichlid tank? Or would they not get along?

What kind of cichlids? How big are the cichlids and the loach?

Any idea what type of ciclids you're going to put in the 55g?

i can say that the Yo-Yo should do well with most of the mid sized (up to at least 12") SA's that are generally available at the lfs.

I've got 3 yoyo's between 3-4" with my severums, geos, sajicas, and a blue acara. They are all still small but no problems yet. The gent I got the yoyo's from had them in a large african cichlid tank and they got along well there too....

depends on the area of Africa. Yo-Yo's are really not a high pH, TDS, hard water fish.
