I just got another 10g tank and need your guys and gals opinions on what kind of Cichlid pair would be good. Let me know, i would like something bright that would go good with the Electric Yellows someday in a bigger tank. So Africans would be great.
Need a good small Cichlid...

if not for the african part, i would have suggested a gold or bolivian ram. Not gonna work if you plan on adding them to a group of africans later on though.
Apistogrammae Cockatuoides would be good. They are a small dwarf cichlid that does well with discus but is not aggressive at all so would not do well with larger africans unless you plan on using them for expensive feeders...
cryptoheros nanoluteus , They're like dwarf convicts and breed like em too.
Crenicichla compressiceps, dwarf pikes from Rio Tocantins.

i would go with a pair of rams in a heavily planted tank with sand. That would look pretty sweet. I've wanted a smaller tank that i could just fill with plants, looks like you have a good opportunity
Depending on what Africans later on, maybe N. brichardi they stay small are not aggressive and readily available.
I agree with the rams I have one myself in my tank and its my favorite fish. But it wouldnt do well if your planning to move it up.
