i COULD get a 400 gallon next month, i waited a year for it. Water,fish,electricity it would cost a lot of money, i love cichlids, specially big aggressive cichlids like dovii,umbee,jags,midas etc.(glass bangers)
but more fish = more filtration and water for waterchange, so i have only 2 or 3 choices, Keeping only a pair of dovii or umbee or a mix of them, but some of those cichlids does not accept tank mates and prefers solo.
My dream was Jag,midas,dovii,festae,Texas,(umbee but does not accept tank mates ) but lot of filtration required so, maybe ill stick to a pair of dovii or umbee.
