hey all. new account but longtime lurker.
I'm looking to get some opinions on the stocking of my 150 gallon tank. It is recently empty and I'm looking to fill it with a few larger, flashier, cichlids.
As it currently stands, for stocking I'm considering:
1x pearlscale cichlid
1x salvini cichlid
1x Uaru Cichlid
1x Blushing Festivum
From my research it seems parameter wise the fishes can live together, but I can't find much on temperament. I have a friend who has had their pearlscale and salvini pair, however I'm not sure how they would treat the Uaru or festivum. If anyone has any other ideas for similar fish but with better temperaments, I'm all ears. My 150 is scaped with branches and large rock caves, so there is space and hiding spots.
Thanks in advance!
