I currently have the following;
30 gallon tank
1 5 inch Acaricthys heckelii(SA cichlid)
1 2.5 inch Satanoperca jurupari
1 5 inch polypterus senegalus
Also, some bristlenose plecos and raphael catfish.
Planning on taking ou the cichlids, leaving only the polypterus and the catfish.
I would really like to add gouramis, for sheer love of them and for some movement to the upper part of the tank.
I would like to get either blues or pearls, but which species should I get? I am almost 100% sure the cichlids won't attack the gouramis. But I'm worried that they could maybe be too aggresive towards each other(blue) or maybe too timid(Pearl)
So some questions are(Applying to both species);
How many could I add, and what ratio? In the end, it would all end up to a gourami and polyterus tank so the cichlid's space won't apply very much
Can the gouramis eat 1mm NLS cichlid pellets? They will be around 2-3inches when purchased
Any feedback(EVen recommending not to do it) will be appreciated
