Electric yellow, peacock, firemouth, and cory cats in a 30 gallon tank?
I was wondering if the electric yellow cichlid, peacock cichlid, firemouth cichlid, all one each, would leave peacefully together. I also want to put about six cory cats in as well. I am providing plenty of hiding places and live plants. And is gravel or sand better for the bottom. 10 points to most helpful answer.
The cichlid mix you stated is really not ideal. Each different cichlids variety has different sizes, water needs, and temperaments. You should pick one type and stick with that for the best results. I have heard a few people mix, but it always has ended in the need for more tanks or re-homing some due to aggression mostly. Electric Yellows and Peacocks are African, more specifically Lake Malawi, cichlids and should be kept with others from the same lake. Considering you have a smaller tank then what cichlids are normally kept in, I would stay away from the mbuna variety from this lake since they tend to be more aggressive and could cause problems. Also, most cichlids prefer to be kept at a high pH. Cory cats prefer more neutral pH and could have issues being kept in a higher pH. I know some people that do, but it is not ideal for the fish. I would recommend going with something like a cuckoo(sp.) catfish, which is actually from the same area and does great with cichlids. You could also look for other loaches or catfish that prefer higher pH levels.
As for the gravel or sand debate, we use all sand in our tanks. You can go with crushed coral, but that can be rather expensive. We buy play sand from local hardware stores and use that. It takes a little bit more work, but helps keep the pH higher (I found even regular sand helps the pH level) and also is very natural to the fish. Some cichlids filter feed and will actually take food particles from the sand. There is a really good article and video of how to use sand and clean it on www.cichlid-forum.com in their library. You may also want to look into salt mixes if you plan on keeping cichlids. With our Malawi guys, we use a 1 Tablesppon Epsom Salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon Marine Salt Mix to provide the closest mineral content as they would have in their lake. Most cichlids are not that far removed form the wild and do better in a more natural water content and habit. Also, cichlids do not usually do well with live plants. They have a tendency to destroy their root systems. I have found that high qualtiy artificial plants with rock bases to be the best with my guys. They are strong and very opinionated fish and will move things in their tank just for the fun of it. A rocky design is also a good idea. I use clay pots (new and not painted) in a lot of my tanks. Hopes this helps out and feel free to email me if I can be of more assistance.
As for cleaning, you do not clean it like gravel. It actually helps alot since most of the waste stays right on top. You take the hose directly above the top of the sand and suck up all the waste. About every 6-8 weeks, you mix the sand up well. IT really is not hard at all. We were told not to use it at first by so many in the hobby and it turned out to be the best idea ever. You will suck up a little sand until you get good at the cleaning, but it is really cheap and you get good after a short time.
