which does better with cichlids tire track eels or fire eels
 
I have one of each in with a mixed bunch of cichlids. I have had them for about 2 years and they both are doing great. I would just make sure that you have some pcv in the tank for some shelter if they need it. My cichlids seem to ignore them both.
 
i have both an there fine

They both work but in my experience the TireTrack's are not as shy and more aggressive when feeding time is on. This is good when living with a bunch of greedy hungry cichlids:D
okay thats what i wanted to hear i was worried if i got one it couldn't get food because of my cichlids
