Moving Things Options To Consider

Ok I think I am going crazy literally. I have decided to move the Africans in to the 120g. Now I know a lot of people don't practice it I am going to be mixing the Peacocks and Mbuna. I think they will be able to hold there own and have enough space in the 120g. Ok here is the plan....

125g
1x Jaguar Cichlid (f)
1x Jack Dempsey (m)
1x Oscar
8x HRP

120g
Africans
38-40 total

75g
3x Severums
1x Firemouth
3x Australlian Rainbows
3x Pictus Cats

55g
1x Jack Dempsey (f)
1x Green Terror
3x SD's

What do you think, anything anyone would change or like to add? I am thinking about getting another 75g soon like summer so not real soon but near future. That will free things up a little and give me more space.

I don't know about the africans, but I'd be wary of that Oscar and the HRPs. Oscars for me go from happy fun sweeties to raging douche bags at the drop of a hat. Until the Oscar gets massive the JD should be able to hold it's own tho.

Well 24 hours and working out so far..... The only tank that there is any problems is the 55g. The fish are pretty skittish and hardly any appetite. I am keeping an eye on them no fighting though. I will wait a few more days and if they are still acting like that I will try and put them at ease with some dithers or some new decor or something.

Also if they are still not eating you could lace there food with garlic. I use kents extream garlic and it works like a charm Very Happy
