Cichlids in a 10 gallon?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I would think N. Multifaciatus, Caudopunctatus, Brevis, J. Marlieri, and ocellatus would do fine in a 10g. Of corse you could only put a few of these fish in there, this is more-or-less a list.
 
Shell dwellers!
 
i got 8 large convicts and about 100 large fry in a 15 gallon, 24 X 12 X 12. everyone's healthy and has their own special home in the tank. i have 2 pairs that breed 6 weeks ago who rule the tank but other then that everything is working out fine! u could have a pair of convicts no problem in a 10 gallon IMO

And that doesn't seem overstocked at all to you?
