Cynotilapia afra blue reef

[surfer3]

Does anyone know the tempermant of this fish. I have read from several sites that they are very agressive, is this true. I was hoping to keep them with yello lab cichlids. B)

They are pretty aggressive. They may or may not go with yellow labs. It all depends on how big your tank is

I have afras with my electric yellows, sometimes they get chased, but no fin nipping or and injuries, just some fast movin'!

like CA wrote, the Cyno afra's are pretty aggressive -- the demasoni will hold their own but your labs might get picked on quite a bit by the afra's. Mine are little devils already and are only 2 inches long and 6 months old--still babies. I'm selling them because unlike my other fish, they are maturing very fast and are proving they need a much larger tank earlier than I had anticipated. IMO mature afra's need at least a 75 gallon---they demand large territories.
