What mbuna cichlids to start new tank with and how many to top off with??

that’s about a 64 us gallon tank, which is pretty nicely sized actually yes the more you have in there the less the aggression one thing i learned with mine was, if you do introduce mbunas at a later time, never just do a single one get one species in a group of 2-3 females and 1 male the groups have a better chance to survive then a single one introduced somewhere along the way, especially if one dies, don’t replace it, it won’t survive either recommendation: i would stay with only 3 species, because your tank is not that long that it would support more then 3 species, because they’re very territorial 4 zebras 4 yellows 4 albino socolfish that’s the limit on the cichlids for your tank make sure the ratio of male to females is correct or you will have deaths i recommend absolutely against auratus and kenyi’s, they’re the most aggressive in the mbuna group, and i wouldn’t keep them in anything less then a 150 us gallon tank actually lots of rockwork and hidingspots are needed as well ho
