Hi all. I have a 29 gallon planted tank that I am thinking about converting over to a cichlid tank with 3-4 Labdichromus. I have a friend who has been raising fry for a while now and the current batch are about 1” in length. My only problem is my current fish. I have red tail shark that I cannot get rid of! No LFS are willing to take him and I hate to part with him. He has been a total terror to any other fish that I have put in there. I have had him for almost 3 years now. Do you think the labs will be compatible with the red tail shark? Do you think the shark will be able to stand the high GH and pH necessary for the labs? I have a hunch that the labs should be able to take care of themselves. I do have a nice 55 gallon planted tank full of tetras that I would hate to turn the shark loose on. Any comments?
