Hi there,

I'm new to this forum and I have been keeping tropical fish for a few years and I'm interested in hearing your opinion on keeping a community tank with a pair Blue Acara's and a pair Bolivian Butterfly Cichlids together.

The tank is 3 foot and I have had dwarf cichlids before. I plan also on
having corydoras, bristlenose's and some other fishies. ( oh the fun chooseing )

At the moment my Blue Acaras are 3 inches and I want
to introduce the Bolivians before the acaras get any larger.
I know the acaras can be agressive but I've learnt that psychology
can work on some fish.
Worked wonders with my psychotic fish Beazalbub:devil:

So like I said I would love to hear what you have to say or if you have kept them together yourself.

Cheers
