I have a 36 gallon aquarium, What kinds of cichlids can I keep besides anglefish?
During the first 60 days the water quality will not be stable unless you cycle the tank with beneficial bacterial enzymes. So all fish need to be added just a few at a time and take consideration into size of fish. Angelfish care will depend on cichlids which are mellow and like 80 degree F. water. Angelfish do best with cichlids from South America and cichlid species that stay very small. For example the bright colored jewel cichlids, african cichlid mix in large company stores (kenyii,auratus,p.zebra) are cute when small and ferocious when larger. Angelfish also come in what is called standard (thick fins) and veils which are like a wedding gown. Veils are more prone to being munched on by tank mates. If it was my tank, I would get it cycled and slowly add a few tetras at a time until I had about 6 head and tail lights, or 6 zebra danios, glowfish in there for about 3 weeks. I would check the water quality for Ammonia and Nitrite levels every week and do 10 to 20 percent water change
