Central American Cichlid stocking for 100 gallon tank
- Thread starter docfishy

Although I agree a 100 gal is too small for dovii. the similar appearing grammodes would work, although it would probably not allow any tankmates.
Or a pair of Parachromis motaguensis, there again a 100 gal would probably only be large enough for the pair
But thinking of other true Central Americans, any of the genus Thorichthys, Astatheros or Archocentrus would be a good fit, and a shoal of species, or a varied community may then be possible.
Astatheros rostratum
Archocentrus cutteri
or some the North American genus Herichthys
carpintus

RTM was mentioned... along with Grammode too. Maybe a La Ceiba?? All are similar to Dovii without the 22" size.
