Can a Butterkoferi be kept with American cichlids of the same size and aggressiveness? Do they have the same food requiremnts? Are they omnivorous or carnivorous? Also are they prone to bloat like other africans if fed a diet that is too rich in portien? Thanks in advance for your replies. I tried searching it up but found conflicting answers.
 
they can be kept with large americans.'

ex: reddevils and texas cichlids
 
I dunno. I keep mine with a Crenicichla Bellycrawler, Fire eel, Jack dempsy, True Nile Bichir, and shovelnose cat. Seems fine but he grew up with them, though.
 
If you decide you want one, I know where you could pick a couple big ones up.
 
yeah they do good with devil .jag .rt .a big o. tx.and feed them all the same i have never seen 1 with bloat.
 
my butti went well with all of my small cichlids.except for my jack dempsey he doesnt have a tail anymore.he didnt like my pacu either
