Answer
Hi Ray

First, I apologize for the delay in answering your question. We had a power outage yesterday that lasted well into the evening and I was unable to get online.

I have both Kribensis Cichlids and Keyhole Cichlids in a few of my community tanks. These would be your best choice for the tank you have. Be sure there are plenty of hiding places in your tank. Rock formations with tunnels and caves work best.

Hope this helps, good luck!

Richard
