I frown on mixing cichlids from different regions, as in my past I did and the Africans were always more aggressive...initially. Anyway, an acquantaince of mine was preparing to move, and he had to get rid of his fish quick. He said he was going to flush them. I told him to hold off on that and I ran by and saved them. They were a firemouth and a kenyi. At the time I had my breeding cons in a tank, so I added them to it. The firemouth drew the bulk of the beating; it might have lasted 15 minutes. The kenyi was fine as long as he didn't venture into con territory.
I recently upgraded to a 40 breeder, as my male con I feel was getting to large to live in a 20 long. I added my kenyi also. I'm pretty sure down the road I'm going to wind up with a dead fish, but I do have 2 distinct territories set up and the tank is 3 feet long.
What say you?
