LOL, how big of a tank is it in?

Okay, what else is in with it. I dont suggest putting any other fish in there if you get a breeding friend. They are mean little things but when they breed they are just so evil I guess you would say. My friend, before he moved, Had a 100g tank with 5 of them and they were always fighting.

yea i noticed that mine ate my other smaller fishes in the tank so i havent had another fish in there for awhile... and i tried feeding it with rosy barb just today and it ate it..so i was afraid that if i put another kind of fish in there.. they might fight

 

[James From Cali]

eah if they decide to fight it might be because of territory issues. All I would do is change the ornaments/plants in a different order when you add a new one!

and OF COURSE cichlids of all fish dont have individual personalities...seriously though some are mean and some are timid and everything inbetween...inculding whent hey are breeding, you can generalize cichlids like that
