"Community" Cichlids?

[Nuriel]

I would go with either dwarf cichlids or angels, but not both, at least not in a tank under 55 gallons as angels grow tall and wide- one would need a wider tank. I am not sure about angels but I know they would eventually outgrow your 29 gallon, unlike dwarf cichlids. Good luck in your endevors.....

well i wanna know if they will go with the fish in my sig.

because one of my Female Lyretail Mollies(she is dalmation) and she is pregnant. one of my molies alreasy had babies and the male has been "showing his anatomy" quite a bit and my dalmation lyretail keeps getting a bigger belly each day like my already pregnant again lyretail so i am guessing that i am screwed because my dad wants me to get alotta angelfish he had 2 full grown angels in a 10 gallon when he was younger and fed them molly fry each day


so basically what i am asking

Will angelfish, keyholes, mollies, and cories get along?

I would say skip the angels and just go with keyholes, they would do fine with mollies and cories.

I hate to be the guy who chimes in and starts talking about overloading a tank, but with 7 mollies, 5 cories, and a dwarf cichlid, you are probably pushing maximum density in a 29g.

If you really want to see dwarf cichlids at their best get more than one (maybe you could take a couple of cories and a few mollies back to the lfs). Good luck with the dwarfs, they will soon become your favorite fish I gaurantee it!
