when i say this i mean a mix of preditory fish and prey items that dont extinct each other for exp. guppies, convicts, adult jaguar cichlid that would be a tank thats a ecosystem where they do eat eachother but yet the strongest survive and spawn

so if you have a tank like this post a pic
 
I have a predatory cichlid tank with 2 oscars, 3 jack dempseys, and a convict pair. There are three minnows that have somehow survived all this time! Any other small fish other than them I drop in get eaten. The Buenos Aires actually fight back my cichlids and they are basically "prey" for all my fish. So I guess I have an "ecosystem" and the female convict is at risk of being eaten by my Oscar. As she is really skinny. But she has a real strong lip lock i guess lol. She pushed him straight into a cave then swam back to hers with her pimp rofl

Convicts can be a mean fish when they with their pimps..... Mine had Fry and held off 2 Oscars, 2 Dempsys, 2 fire mouths, 4 catfish, 1 jewel, and 2 blood parrots....They kept them on the other side of the tank.... and 4 off the little Some Beaches lived through the jungle..... Now I have 7 Convicts... This was in a 220G
