I have a 35 gallon tank with
3 peaceful angelfish, 4 zebra danios, 2 rummy nose tetras, 5 serpae tetras, 1 butterfly hill stream loach, 1 sumo loach, 2 Asian bumble bee catfish, and 1 albino bristlenose Pleco
Temp is around 74 and ph is 7.5

What cichlid could I get with this?
Would Firemouth cichlids work or are they too big and aggressive?
I was also considering Blue acara and electric blue acara.
Thanks for your help.

I was also wanting to get a 125 gallon tank.
My ideas were
4 Firemouth cichlids
4 Nicaragua cichlids
4 Electric Blue Acara
2 Delhezi bichir
I was going to have the temp at 78-79 and ph at 7.3-7.4
Do you think this would work?

Hello. Honestly your 35 gallon is fully stocked. I would not add anything except your rummies should be in a larger group. I would rehome the danios and increase the rummies to 6-8.

Regarding the 125 stock, it may work for awhile but you may have territorial issues if/when the cichlids start breeding.
