They seem to be getting chased around alot. Are the father’s supposed to help with the care, mine sure isn’t? Could I put the females in the same tank or will they eat the other’s fry. Please help me this is their first brood and I have no idea what to do. I noticed that they had eggs in their mouths yesterday. If i should put them in that tank what should be in it. What can I feed the fry? What is …

I asked this question like about 5 times now and I did not get any serious answer. So can someone name me some fish that will get along with these cichlids? I got an GT, Texas, and Goby. They are all about 4 inches. I would like to add some more cichlids but I don’t know what kind. Will any of these fish work? Jaguar, Red devil, Red Terror, Pike, or a Peacock Bass?

I have an African Cichlid Tank (Red Zebras, Auratus, Tropheus Moori, Electric Yellow Labidochromis and so on), Two Plecos and last but not least a Needle Nose Gar. I purchased a GSP from Wal-Mart after reading that they can tolerate the high PH (8.2) in my tank thanks to fossilized Coral. This morning I woke to a dead Red Peacock, and now this evening A second cichlid (Unknown Species Looked Cool and was only six bucks) is very stiff and having trouble swimming. I isolated the GSP in a net …

I have a 10 gallon tank with 7 cichlids. They are not all from the same store, and all bought on different days. Most recently, I bought a red peacock cichlid. The first one was half eaten within 24 hours. The second one I bought the next day, lasted a week and I just found it dead at the bottom of the tank. All the fish are eating well and have plenty of swimming room. None of the other fish have ever had problems …

I have a tank with several different cichlids and some of them seem to be getting fat, and some of them are males so I know its not breeding. They’ve got a belly that sticks out a bit then comes in quick to their butt. I tested the water right before a water change and there is no ammonia, no nitrites, and about 60 or 70 nitrates (before 25% water change). The main ones I notice it in are:
1 Red Zebra (Male)
1 Green Terror (??)
1 Red Peacock …
