Yellow Labs

[James From Cali]

I will be getting 2 10g's and a 20g in about 5 or 6 months. But before I get them I want to do a stocking for all 3, and thankfully my mom said I cna have 4 tanks in my house.

10g #1
Fry Tank, mollies and guppies

10g #2
Guppy Tank

20g
Yellow Lab Tank

Are those good I think I might want to do 4 Yellow labs. Would that be alright?

 

[Cichlid-Man]

I wouldn't put labs in anything less then a 29gal. They are Mbuna and have potential to reach 6".

 

[RISK2123]

yeah u should be good with 4. it may get a little aggressive in there but i think itll work out ok. a 29 g for the yellow labs would be a little better but then agian it does cost more...

 

[James From Cali]

What would you suggest for a 20g?

 

[Helena21]

Kribs or german blue rams ?

 

[James From Cali]

They have rock Kribs. Do you think I can get 2?

 

[James From Cali]

Or Jewels or peacocks?

 

[Helena21]

If rock kribs are basically the same as normal kribs then i think 2 would be ideal.

 

[yav1n]

jewels and peacocks would do the same as labs in a small tank

 

[James From Cali]

No Rock Kribs are not the same as Normal Kribs. Hmm, okay so I dont think I have many choices for a cichlid tank. Thats really all they have as far as cichlids that I thought would work.

Just one more vote for no labs in a 20g...
