What kind of rocks are those? It looks like granite, quartzite or arkose. I thought africans had to be on calcerous rocks. I dont know for sure, that's why I'm asking. 
Got some small cichlids! Added some decor! Tell me what you think!

Yep, they are granite rocks. I asked the guy if they were fine to use with African cichlids, and he said yep.
The idea is great, you just need to use bigger bolders and have more space in between, otherwise you'll have way too much detritus gathering under those rocks.

Yea I guess granite is fine as long as you add some salts--looks pretty too. But I agree, I wouldnt wanna deal with the cleaning in such tight rock
Nice fish too; the ones a LFS near me are all scrawny looking. There's like no cover in there for them--poor little fellas.
Baby convicts today!! Will be posting photos soon

Oh, I also had a question: I've seen some people that come into my shop with african and SA cichlids in the same tank. I didnt think that was appropriate; anyone know?
