hi i am currently keeping a 125 litre tank with a built in filter and heater. I am currently keeping three rainbowfish, 6 platies,1 guppy and two female bristlenose catfish. I have had this tank running since march. I would like to keep some kind of cichlids as i would like some colour. Am I able to keep them with my current tank mates or is beter to start again. Ani help will be a great help. Thanks Tom :)
 
what about a severum? or a festivum?
you can get blood parrots, they have such tiny mouths they cant do any damage. ive had them with platys, tetras even zebra danios.
angel fish too
just make sure you get something under 2" this way they will grow up together and wont pay much attention to the other fish
ive kept oscars with a school of black tetras for 5 years, but tetras are fast a guppy wouldnt stand a chance
 
Depending on your water parameters, either africans(alkaline water) or South Americans(acidic water) would be good. And I agree with you, yellow labs are very nice. But they may eat your guppy... :eek:
