55 Gallon Tank Yellow lab and demsaoni tank

Hi all,

I have an existing mbuna tank. I have many yellow labs that are full grown and 3 demsaoni cichlids that are full grown. I would like to add some more damasoni but will the labs be aggressive with juvenile demsaoni? Will the adult damasoni be aggressive with the juveniles? Should I get rid of all of the adult demsaoni cichlids and replace them with all new juveniles? Any suggestions?

Thanks

Any suggestions?
Get a bigger tank.

No seriously. A 200 liter tank is actually 100-200 liters too small for Mbuna. Is it structured well at least?

And yes, aggression will be happening as new fish means the pecking order has to be reestblished or confirmed.

This doesn't answer my question. Can I add the juveniles in with the adults or not?

It does. Read the last paragraph I wrote again.
It also stated that probably any addition to an already too small tank is a bad idea.

Or if that answer suits you better: No, you shouldn't!
