realizing that my tank gets dirty too fast and my fish are getting very impatient with eachother. i have the following cichlids 9-10 inch male jag.......5 inch Cuban cichlid.............5 inch firemouth................7 inch Dempsey..................7 inch mayan.............and small geophagus pelligrini. the jag is staying cuz obv i love jags. im kind of considering selling or giving away the mayan and maybe the Dempsey too. what do you guys think?
 
I agree lose the Mayan and Dempsey and maybe the geo cause they really aren't meant to handle Cuban and jag level aggression

If you like the jag that much keep him as a wet pet alone, he will definitely get big enough to fill the tank out. And he may not want any friends in there as he ages anyway.

my jag is starting to look so big, he lurks around the tank and at times he'll go psycho and tear some scales off one of my fish but its not that bad yet. i wouldn't mind just him in the tank but my bro and dad wont want that my dad likes the Cuban and they both like the firemouth(not that its not gonna get chomped one day) i might just narrow to those 3 if the Cuban and firemouth don't get killed great but if they do atleast we tried

Well you should have enough notice to pull them before they get killed especially in the case of the Cuban

well yeah i wouldn't let them die what kind of fish keeper would i be if i did. if i see he's just taggin them hard ill sell em theyr beautiful fish im sure someone would be more than happy to buy em
 
keep the jack, rid the geo and fire mouth, if the jack is 7 inches hell be able to hold his own. cubans look a lot like jaguars don't they?
