Ok could I have cichlids in a either a 20 gallon or a 30 gallon tall tank?
My mom saw this nice cichlid tank and she really liked them.
I have an empty 20 gallon tank. All I have to do is a get a heater filter and hood lol. Anyway, I was thinking of setting up the 20 gallon and move my community fish to the 20 gallon and then put cichlids in the 30 gallon.
Now I know most cichlids get about 4 to 5 inches. Is there any dwarf cichlids? The cichlids that my mom liked are african cichlids.
Thanks for hte help in advance.
 
cichlids are probaly the largest group in this hobby so you have many to pick from. i have herd convicts are good for 30 gals, and if you check out Species Profiles at the top of this page you will find dwarf cichlids
 
Hello,

The following is a list of cichlids that I think would do good in a 30 gallon: Rams, Agassiz's Dwarf Cichlid, Golden Dwarf Cichlid, Cockatoo Dwarf Cichlid, Chessboard Cichlid, Signatus(a lake Tanganika shelldweller), and a Umbrella Dwarf Cichlid. You probably could have Convicts too. This is just some of the cichlids you could have for a 30 gallon.
