What Cichlids can go in a 120 litre tank.

[MikeOscar]

Hello all,

Can anyone help me i currently have a 3 foot jewell 120 ltr fish tank and its been running for about 3 years now with no problems it currently has gourami's and rainbow fish in it, but im looking at putting some cichlids in there as i want to start fresh and will sell all the other fish, i like frontosa's but can i stock them in a tank that size? if so what can go with it or is there ny other fish i could have instead of them if so what can go with them,
in the past i have had oscars, silver arowana, blood parrots, convicts in a 6 foot tank but due to moving house that had to go but i prefer cichlids and want to get back that way if i can.


can anyone help?

thanks very much in advance.

120L is about 30-35gal or so? Frontosa would get way too big for a tank that small. Dwarf cichlids might be a good choice for a smaller tank like that, because you could probably get a few of them, with a school of smaller dither fish or something.
