Who Gives A Fish Forums

Lintel, chill out, I got the message. You still didn't answer my question though. Thanks for that.

I'm gonna take out the red zebra today at Petco. So what type of cichlids would be good to add with my opaline gourami and jewel cichlids? Should I stick with South Americans or can I mix with others?

My water stats are good - very hard, ph 7.8, and nitrates and nitrites are in the safe zone. Quality-wise, all is well. Tank size is 26 inches long, 14 deep, and 17 high. All is good now, just the fire mouth is my issue, otherwise aggression among the others has decreased.

Need some advice. I'm looking to add some new fish to my 25 gallon tank. I have 2 female jewels in there now and they're doing great, lots of fun to watch. I was thinking of adding a pair of strawberry peacocks or maybe just one, depending on what they want. Or maybe some labs. The lfs has a sale on ...

That's a bummer, I'll rehome the jewels. What about the strawberry peacocks or labs, can they coexist in a 25 gallon with other fish?

I just got my new jewels and they're doing great. They're having a blast chasing the air bubbles - so cute and fun to watch. I'm thinking of adding some strawberry peacocks, maybe a pair or just one if that's what they'd like. I've got a 25-gallon tank with just the two female jewels in it right now ...
