It all depends on who the tankmates are. In general, many dwarf cichlids are non-aggressive with other fish (when not defending a breeding territory, and even then minimally aggressive).
Keyholes, bolivian rams, Neolamprologus brevis, etc...

Cichlids are a huge group of fish. Some are aggresive and some less so. it really depends on each species and even each individual fish.
All the cichlids i have(rams, angelfish, most of my africans) are relatively peaceful. BUt someone with the same species or fish could have a different experience.

I have two Bolivian Rams, one German Blue Ram, and two Electric Yellow Cichlids in my community tank with Guppies, Platies, Mollies, Cory's, and Dwarf Gourami's.
I've had these fish together for several months, and so far I haven't had any problems.
I'm not sure how you tell if a fish is "happy" or not, but nobody's fighting, and they all look very healthy.

Tony- I would becareful with havign that electric yellow in with your community fish. They really shouldn't be kept with peaceful community type fish as even though they are considered a "peaceful" mbuna they are still more aggresive then any of the other fish you have.
I know. But its been a few months now, and I haven't had any problems. Maybe if they get bigger I will find another home for them, but right now everybody's happy.
