fish fight

[wobble]

The Melanochromis Johannii are highly aggressive and IMO belong in a tank no smaller that 75g. Not to mention he will probably end up killing all your other fish. I suggest removing him from that tank.

Here's some info on the Johanni...

well wat if i put him wit a red devil i think ithe tank is 75gallon not sure though could i put those 2 togather in that???

IMO it's not good to mix Central American cichlids with African cichlids. They each require different water quality as well as different diets. Just don't mix well.

ok thanks for all the help im think about trading him in to the lfs

Sounds like the best option for now. They are great fish though (I have one).

im think about gettin a 60gallon but that will be a year for now but would that size be good for them?

You could put mbuna in a 60g, but I'd go with a 75g or more if you are stocking with any that belong to the melanochromis family. They tend to be the most aggressive of the mbuna and they really need their space.
