  • #1
I have a community tank with a pair of GBR'S in it already. I was curious as to how many pairs of dwarf cichlids would be suitable for my tank, also can various dwarf cichlids be mixed (Kribs, Apistogramma, GBR's)?

Thank you in advance.

Be carefull with that Buck. Most dwarfs (GBR's as well) are territorial fish. It depends on your tanksize and other fish. Kribs are little terrorists when having fry so be extra carefull with those !!!

Sorry I noticed the tanksize in the title. What other fish are in. Hidingplaces aso ??

You may have serious aggression issues with kribs and rams with that footprint.

Not something I would advise, but you could try it if you have a backup plan.

Cichlids are unique and their personalities vary by invidividual.

How about apistos? Or another dwarf cichlid?

I would strongly advise against two pairs of cichlids with that footprint, even apistos, with rams.
