Would a Green terror, a rotkeil, a gold jd, a salvini and the mixteco blue be compatible? If not, what would you suggest? the rotkeil is a must though and I'm thinking about ordering these from rapps. might try breeding the rotkeils though. Thanks

Sevs are semi-aggressive generally, and are not designed as killing machines as alot of the other cichlids are, especially the more predatory (they're also omnivorous, I have 15 and they go through greens like crazy). Rapps' rots are awesome, I got 5 last August along with 5 heros severus. I must say, as they're growing the severus (Orinocos) are by far the more aggressive.

The GT and Salvini are too agressive for the other fish. Ken

ok what do you suggest as tankmates for a pair of rotkeil? Thanks

You could try a couple of nicaraguan cichlids mine have always been well behaved. Or maybe some Firemouths.

blue acaras are a good choice, as are more interesting acaras like Krobia. Geo's are always good too.
