Another Mbuna stocking question

[MGabesz]

Hey Guys,

After reading a lot of articles about the topic, my initial stock idea changed a lot. I also opted for a larger tank, so instead of a 240L I'm going to start a 450L (120 Gal) tank.

Please check my stocking plan, whether is it ok, or would cause problems:

7-9 Yellow Labs (Labidochromis Caeruleus), 2 males, rest females
7-9 Mainganos (Melanochromis cyaneorhabdos), 2 males, rest females
5 Maylandia estherae, 2 males rest females
5 Mpangas (pseudotropheus elongatus mpanga), 2 males rest females

and maybe a few pacocks males.

Thank you

Labidochromis caeruleus and Melanochromis cyaneorhabdos should be fine together.
Pseudotropheus elongatus mpanga should be fine too.

Maylandia estherae are in the same genus as Pseudotropheus lombardoi (Maylandia lombardoi) and could be an issue. I have kept Lombardi and they are pretty agro, however I have not kept M. estherae. But if they are anything like the lombardoi they will cause problems.

Peacocks will go with anything so should be fine.
