Geo's with Firemouths

Post by jeep04 »

I'm trying to figure out what to keep in my 75 gallon with 2 Geophagus leuc. I would really like to do a few Firemouth Cichlids or similar fish that would get 6 to 8 inches any ideas would be helpful. I tried Angelfish that a friend was getting rid of and it did'nt work out they beat the crap out of each other, did'nt bother the other fish though. One of the 3 angels drove the other 2 crazy, would not let them out of the corners. Thanks for the help

Firemouths aren't the best match for Geo's. Try Severums, or if you get your hands on them, some uaru.

No such thing as a crap question. Really do your research with the uaru. they can be just a temperate as discus.
