I have an empty 7.5 gallon bowfront tank. What could i stock for cihclids in this? Looking for more than 1 fish though, so not a single cichlid. Any ideas? A pair of anything?

Thanks!!
 
I would think convicts get too big for such a small tank. If i did convicts you could only keep two females.

I figure some type of dwarf cichlid, like a Nannacara anomala

No. I think the only think you could stock would be shell dwelling african species, and even then, that would be pushing it.
 
i would say do a pair of trio of multies or some other small shell dweller. other than that, i wouldnt do any other type of cichlid. Good luck
 
I agree with the Multis with a bunch of snail shells, would provide you with constant entertainment with them marking territories and going in and out of the shells.
Along with them breeding and giving you more. They are the worlds smallest cichlid species. Unless a new species has been discovered.
