As of tonight, here is my stock list...

(1) 13" Common Pleco
(1) 7" Jack Dempsey
(1) 5" Jewel Cichlid
(1) 5" something or other
(3) 3-4" Convict Cichlids (Breeding Group 2F/1M)
(20-30) around 1" Cichlids (fry from previous fish that were in the tank)
(1) 6" Peacock Eel

I did have a few other fish in there, but traded them with a buddy because he was getting rid of his bigger cichlids. I had originally thought that I may have problems with the smaller cichlids and the bigger ones, but there has only been one casualty so far. There are plenty of hiding places for all the fish, so there haven't been too many problems yet.

I didn't plan on changing up my tank until I saw the Jack Dempsey. I honestly have never seen one with so much color before, so I went ahead and got him. My friend also had the Jewel and another type of African that were around the same size, so I snatched them up as well. There is also a chance that I will be getting a monster cobalt blue in the next week or so, so I'll have to move the smaller ones to my other tank.

Pictures to come...
