pegasus Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi, I am just about to set up my first cichlid tank after much prompting from my teenage daughters who both have tanks of their own. I have purchased an 8ft x 2ft x 2ft tank and am waiting on delivery early in the week. My question is - which would be the best fish to start with? and any suggestions for the setup would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullychichlid Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Congratulations, and what a way to start 8x2x2 IMO I would go some SA Chichlids in a tank that size. I have a 5x2x2 and have over 50 Mbuna in it to make it look full and if you work that out in dollars at $15 per fish the price gets up there. But saying that it looks awsome. SA Like Oscars, GT, RED DEVILS, Jags and Dovii ect have real personalities and would thrive in a 8x2x2. They are also very hardy fish for water paramatters ph ect The choice is yours and enjoy you new tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
