Default 36 Gal mix Cichlid tank

Ok so here's a few pic's of my 36g. I am well aware that it is to small for the cichlid full grown but all are juvenile they seem to be ok. also here's the stock

1 Green Severum, 2 Auratus, 1 Venustus, 1 Acei, 1 Kenyi, 1 Duboisi, 1 Demasoni, 2 other africans I haven't identified, 1 Pictus Cat, 1 Rainbow shark, 3 tertas (just to give cichlids something to chase besides each other) Any feedback plz What i thought was a Jack turned out to be a Firemouth so moved him to my 25G less aggressive tank.


Full view of tank


Severum with Venustus & Demasoni in pic



Firemouth (Acei trying to pick on him, also now in 25G tank)

Looks very nice!
As you said, you will have to upgrade the tank size.

I had my firemouth with my africans for a while and he was always trying to bully, he did however get over it and surrender to them as they grew. Ive noticed that some of the FM's just seem to have that disposition of wanting to dominate but usually get over that, at least in my experience. I have had mine with all types of fish and they have always calmed after a few weeks.

well must say moved the FM to my 25 gallon was getting torn apart by my africans (guess he was a passive one) has almost no tail hoping he will get along with my veil angel and clown loach's.
