30 gallon tank, gimme some advice.
- Thread starter Electric45

by all means im thankful for the advice, its just ive had numerous responses telling me firemouths would work better (in size and aggressiveness), u r the first to tell me otherwise. But thanks.
While cons are generally smaller they are usually much more aggressive, especially when breeding. Colorful cichlids for a small tank would include rams, apistos, or go african with shellies.
Well i think im prolly just gonna go with this set up then:
1. 1 male/1 female Firemouth Cichlids
2. Peacock Eel
3. Rubber lip pleco
4. Sand Substrate
5. A DIY background ( Do it yourself concrete background, dont worry ive researched this a lot and it is completely safe if you do it right, check out www.cichlid-forum.com if anyones interested)
6. Plants
7. Driftwood
And hopefully all will work out best.

Dont get one of these! Unless you plan on adding a couple of 0's to the gallonage of your tank.

. Really gettin bored of my little community fish stuff, I wanna get some fish with personality and firemouths seem like the right choice for me considering im limited to tank size/money.
