Which Type of Cichlids don't get bigger then say 5inch? I might pick up another 60Gal tank and I'm looking for small fish i can have alots of and mostly Cichlids.
 
Rams and African Shell Cichlids (don't remember scientific name)
 
Apistogramma, Convict, Curviceps, Firemouth, Keyhole, Nannacara, and Rams. Can all these get along? i just googled small Cichlids And thos are all the names that came up.
 
I would go with dwarfs , you can get some nice colors and the stay under 5"
 
I seen dwafs i didnt know they got that big... I was thinking small guy Small fish like hestay that size. Id have to look into them I love my convicts tho :)
 
Why not do tang.cichlids?can mix some different lamps,julidichromis,altolamprolongus,would be plenty of room for them to grow and breed.brichardi would be cool too,the young stay with the parents and will help raise the next batch of fry,pretty cool to see.

some demasoni or afras(galileo or jalo reef)
