Okay I have a 125 gallon and was wondering what could work with my F1 la cebia Freddy. She is getten mean as hell that is why I am selling my F1 lyonsi pair and she is fine with her other tank mates. She is in with a Florida garb13" a ornate 13" and a endi 5". She is fine with them doesn't bother with them and leaves them alone. So I was wondering of what you guys think might work with her or I am honking I might just have to leave it the way it is what are you thoughts or suggestions?

Maybe a pair of smaller cichlids ala firemouth, con, hrp a fish that wont threaten but could defend as a pair to better help. Parachromis are very territorial andd you may have to be okay with a solo cichlid. All my tanks are either a pair or a solo fish. Got too tired of dealing with aggression and couldnt be happier with all my setups. You seem to like her why not get a male and just have a pair. Her colors will pop once paired up.

maybe a flagtail? OR try a different shaped cichlid.a vieja:black belt,zon,gutt,etc.she could just not like any cichlids.some larger fish leave smaller fish alone,maybe not seen as a threat.my texasXjag accepted a mean-assed female salvini,killed her mate in another tank.i put her in his 75,didn't see her for 2 weeks.she was able to hide.now swims next to him!
 
I have mine in with a group of cutteri. No clue how this is going to ultimately turn out, mind you. It's only been about two weeks. But so far, the cutteri are ignored, other than occasionally running them off from it's favorite cave.
