The world record Bluegill is over 4 pounds; and they can display some strong aggression. Yes i know this is old, but I also know folks still try to mix Bluegills with cichlids.

Sunfish can be mixed with cichlids, but just like other cichlids they are individuals so you have to be prepared to intervene. I have sunfish, including a bluegill, with some mildish CA ciclids and some tough SA cichlids, growing out to go in my big tank I will build. So far they get along quite well. I think it is also really rare to see a sunfish over 10 inches in captivity, despite the size some reach in the wild. I wish more people would try them, even with cichlids. Some of my brighter colored sunfish outshine most my cichlids in color!
