chocolate cichlid tankmates?

[Loves severums]

My chocolate killed a keyhole so I would not keep it with a festivum.

ok than what else can i put with it than just the geos?

based on the OP's avatar, im guessing at least one satanoperca jurupari/leucostica... maybe all three are them

i am going to have 2 satanoperca jurupari and 1 geophagus altifrons.

so you have 4 fish that will reach atleast 8". you don't have room for any other tankmates unless you're going to upgrade. chocolates grow pretty quickly. i had one for about 2 months that grew about 2-3" in that time and was very bulky

I just purchased a 4" long male chocolate cichlid. Hes in a 60 gallon tank with 2 10" oscars and a mated pair of convicts. So far he seems like a sissy.... Any advice?

why did you get choclates ? im loling right now

 

[HiImSean]

i've got some advice. git a 150g tank or give the oscars to someone with a proper home. srsly
