Yes, that's it! 30gal is the smallest tank you should use for mbunas. IMHO, you can have in that 30gal tank a maximum of 6 yellow labs but only 1 male and 5 females.
would it be possible?

10 gallons is where i rescued my lab from.He was an adult, he thumped the glass all the time. My lab has never been with other mbuna, he does not act them so much,But he is still semi-aggressive. I would really try for a 36"-48" tank. There are usually alot of people looking to labs try finding a home for him here or craigslist.
alright. thank you guys a lot. i'll either try finding him a home on craigslist or i'll just use the 30 gallon for him and a couple other females. i appreciate the help. =]
10gal tank for yellow lab
Not only is it a bad ideal but it will harm the fish as well in the long run..
