In Reply to: 32 gallons - How many cichlids can I have posted by rmleon on March 11, 2003 at 11:39:27:
:Hi people,
:I bought a 32 gallons (40x12x16 inch) few days ago and now I was wondering if someone could advice me on how may cichlids can I have.
:I was thinking about having 4 or 5 cichlids (Pseudotropheus demasoni, Tropheus Duboisi, Astatotilapia latifasciata, Maylandia aurora, Maylandia estherae).
:One day, I was talking to a friend of mine and he said that I should have no problem but I would like to check it out with you, who might be more experience with cichlids.
:Thanks a lot.
if you are going to have 5 fish, then i recommend 3 females 1 male. I would recommend you to have 4. 1 male and 3 females.
