What size are your tanks?What cichlids are with who in those tanks?I do like the much longer tank in the picture though,for some reason I think longer length tanks has for more room for the cichlids to swim in.

I like that TSNXRTC, how big is it and how long have you had it?? I had a RTC once, but it grew about about 6 or 7" in only like three months!!! I really underestimated that fish!!! Anyway I like yours... I think that cross looks cool.

haha i think mine grew faster, bought him at 1.5" really tiny for 10$ and in 3 months he got to this size which is 9-10" hadnt had him long but he already ate 1 of my fronts, bass, jack dempsey, salvini and a firemouth lol

i need help i have a 8 in jaguar and hes going bat **** on everything including my birtirs help!!!!!!
jags r really aggressive so maybe u need to put him in his own tank
 
Cool setups.
I agree, most of your fish will prefer the length vs the height.
You plan to move them so it's all good.
Keep us updated.

that is a good set up to have then,I want to get another tank,at least a 75 gallon to have a Midas or a Flowerhorn in.

1 or the other...
Both will not work, those 2 fish get too big to keep both in a 75G.

How big is your tank?
The larger the tank, the better the chances.
Some fish are just meant to be alone.
Some tolerate tank mates, & some won't.
:D
