Am about to launch a new fish tank but my experiences lack at this area. I have been keeping Guppies and Swordtails up until now so that I would like to start keeping some aggressive fish species too. I won’t mix Guppies with aggressive cichlids together, of course . The best I can get now is a list of fish which will be compatible and will get along somhow since I like community aquariums. I understand that I won’d be able to introduce 20 specimens into my new tank, however my idea is to put 4 fish together at least. African cichlids are prefered, however species coming from central america would be nice too.
My new tank’s capacity will be 100 gallons.
TY! Regina
