The bleheri might get eaten eventually.

i didnt mean punctata i was readin sumthin n wrote the wrong name... i meant channa gachua, bleheri and a pike cichlid

i figure if they all max out at the same size then eating eachother wont be a problem... but i dunno bout fighting...

Which pike (over 35 types) cichlid? If it's one of the smaller ones you might get away with it. If it's one of the lugubris group no chance.

i've kept bleheri's and gachua together and they were fine. Pretty much left each other alone. It depends on how many you're going to mix. I'm sure it'll be fine if you dont overstock and provide enought hiding spaces.

i as thinking of a pike which is generally the same size as the bleheri and gachua...

it would probably be 2 gachuas and 1 or 2 bleheris and 1 pike

maybe ill just leave the pike out n get 2 of each sh

I would honestly just go for only bleheris. If you are adamant about keeping a mix of mini monsters I woud go with the channas
