hi guys, today i brought home a female salvini and female pink convict, and found my red terror died of white spot.
i just setup my 75g+eheim canister 2215 today and moved all of them to the 75g, currently, i have red texas, kkp, pink convict, and salvini, all of them are small, ranging from 1 to 2 inches, what else i can add? Green terror was killed by red terror, not buying it again and i don't like jack dempsey. Carpintis i had fun with it, anything else that is colorful and doesn't grow over a foot?
 
if you don't like Green Terror, try Blue Acara . . . you won't get the nuchal hump, but they have very similar coloring

could also consider Firemouth, Rainbow or Jewel . . .
 
Was the red terror in the same tank as the others. If so you might want to treat the whole group before adding more fish........But back to the topic, might look into some geo's, the have great colors. A geophagus brasiliensis might be good for your group.

i took fish out without water!
dunno why, kkp and rt been together for a long time, after i moved them to 75g, rt tried eating kkp, hooking kkp's body and biting its vent/fins. I only like red geo, but too hard to find.

i don't like acara, i'd rather get another gt. my uncle has a bunch of jewel, i enjoyed. I like firemouth, will get it next week, but the rainbow cichlid is sooo rare, where can i find one in nyc?

are those look like convict? my wolf fish ate my convicts pairs, my parents will .... when they see them again.

how about dithers to reduce cichlid aggression? rainbow, giant danio, or silver dollar?
 
Jewel's are beautiful, but really aggressive.
