small Cichlid ideas for a 56 gallon tank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
so, i got 2 bumble bees, 2 albino socolofi, and 2 demasoni. do you think that this is ok for life? The tank is a 56 gallon. do you think that i could possibly get another pair? i tried to pick some that would get me some good color but yet do not get to big.
 
I was looking at some sp 44 haps. Maybe a redttail like this. What about the stocking. Is it at the limit or could I go a few more?

In a tank that size you can double that number no problem, mbuna definitely work better slightly overstocked. Also to the guy who commented earlier that most Malawi are boring, he clearly has never kept them.
 
Def not boring better than them oversized New Worlds lol. But you could try to do the m:f ratio, or all males of different types to get those numbers up.
