well then even if those were the smallest cichlids known, your tank would be slightly overstocked as is.

African cichlids need a much bigger aquarium. They will grow too large for a ten gallon and you are apt to have aggression problems down the line. I would rehome the cichlids and if you want a lot of color go with a few platys instead with a trio of say panda corys for the bottom to scavange and eat up any left over food.

i agree, get the africans out of there, its just plain wrong

With the three "Africans", I don't think you can support anything additional. In fact, you probably should look to house them some place else then choose a new mix.

10 gal is too small for africans. if you have a bigger tank move them to it. what cichlids would they be anyway?

and should you get rid of the africans how about neons/cardinals?
or perhaps a betta?
