My sister and I were at the pet store the other day, looking at some fish, for her. She has a 30 Gallon long tank. She lives in the country, so she has well water.
She has wonderful substrate, driftwood, and rocks. (It use to be my tank, before I moved in with my boyfriend, who already had multiple tanks)
Since i gave her the tank, she has only been able to keep guppies alive. The manager at the pet store suggested it might be her country water and cichlids would be a good match for her tank.
I had a cichlid when I was younger, but I was only 10 years old. He was a gift, from my father for easter, so I knew very little about the fish I held in my 55 G tank, with a monster pleco (more than 16 inches long), an albino cat, and a few other.
Would they really work in her tank? He suggested 4 african cichlids, is that too many? Is there a special one she should get?
Has anyone had this problem before?
