I have a 6x3x2 tank and this is list i whish to have just wonder coments on suiteability, and any comments would be nice. :)

Copadichromis borleyi x4
Cyrtocara moorii x6
Fossorochromis rostratus x5
Nimbochromis livingstonii x3
Nimbochromis venustus x3

and maybe these two
Cyphotilapia frontosa x8
Steatocranus casuarius x8

Just after coments see what people think.
 
The top 5 are good.

Fronts are a bad idea in this tank. They tend to stress easily with fast moving haps. Everything else looks good.

You will probably have to keep an eye on the larger haps to make sure they don't stress anything else out.

i have a pair of Fossorochromis rostratus with some small Fronts at the moment and do not seem to be causing any trouble.
 
The c. moori and frontosa do well together in general. I have my fronts (3-4inch) in with 2 c. moori and they get along really good, i also have 2 nimbochromis (wimpy ones !!) and also 2 red empress in the tank as well. I dont have any problems yet but I understand that i may have to remove any of the other fish at any time if the fronts start to get shredded fins and have the additional large tanks to do this.

Your two nimbochromis species might breed , go with one species.
