AND FAR AS SIZE GOES I DIDNT SEE ANY INCREASE IN MINE AND I HAD THEM FOR 11 MONTHES B4 I GOT RID OF THEM.PLUS I WAS FEEDING THEM 8 DOZEN SMALL GOLD FISH A WEEK,BUT NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT THE LMB WAS EATTTING MOST OF THEM.

ILL SAY THE YELLOW PERCH IS A VERY GOOD ADD FOR ANYONE CAUSE THEY DONT BOTHER NOBODY JUSTS EATS,SWIMS, AND POOPS
 
I agree with the bumblee being you centerpeice. I had one that was close to 9 inches and super aggressive. As far as adding a JD, maybe, but JD's get just as big as GT's.
 
the bumblebee is the african mbuna type...just so you guys know......they only grow to 4inches....
 
Here's a picture of my male Pseudotropheus Crabro (Bumblebee).
He's around 8".....very thick bodied.
I've had him for less than a year.....around 2" when i bought him.
He's rather strange in that he's not aggressive towards the other africans but he is the king of the tank. :)

still the perch is a cold water fish and it would be a bad idea

NO NO NO Carbos are 8+ and can get real nasty in tight quarters adult males are black with yellow vertical lines females yellow with black vertical lines and quite powerful for their size. As juvi's both look like the female but by 4" the male will show his all black when he's pissed.

FYI - I luv my male Carbo
 
yea 8 inches..i read their profile and it only said 4 inches....wow thats crazy....

A GT would be too big for a 55g.
