Electric Yellow (lab) question

[Captain Hook]

Would these guys be too aggressive for a large community tank with rosy barbs, rainbows and angelfish?

I already told you that yes they would most likely be too aggressive and they need different water requirements.



Your angel's fins would be ripped to shreds especially when the male starts staking terretory and breeding.

I'm hoping for some other opinions...possibly from people who have tried keeping similar combinations of fish together.

Seems like these forums are pretty stagnant these days :shake:

I agree

and now you have two opinions.

I also agree (thats 3)

The angel would be left in shreds in no time. Africans shouldnt' be mixed with "community" type fish because or aggression differences.

Thanks ladies that's all I wanted to know. I wanted to keep cichlids for something different and the yellow ones look great. I think they look nearly as bright and colourful as saltwater fish.

Guess I'll stick with the angels, rainbows, barbs and maybe dwarf cichlids or something.

Good move. Yellow labs are mild compared to most mbuna, but they'd beat up on angels something awful.
