thw 1 with the red belly looks like a fire mouth chiclid

 

[charmd2]

No clue, but how big is that tank?? You have a massive bioload there.

 

[keane]

you appear to have (in addition to the balas).....

three firemouth cichlids, at least three Mbuna (I think various Pseudotropheus species), and an oscar!

All of these fish are very territorial and aggressive in nature .

Your oscar alone should not be kept (on it's own) in a tank less than 55 gallons.

As your oscar grows, so does it's territory requirement, and it will try to take over your tank and eventually kill off all of it's other inhabitants

sorry. I think you need to reconsider all of your balas tank mates.

I see oscar, firemouth, a mbuna of some sort but its useful info being quite similar, and a Sciaenochromis fryeri

i see dead fish in a few years

american and african cichlids shouldn't even be in the same tank

Mmkay, seriously..

The majority of your fish are not compatible. Firemouths, oscars, and Mbunas.. not a good idea. Have you researched into the requirements of your fish?

i've got a quarter on "No" since he doesn't know their names... *wry smile* its hard to do research on something if you don't know what it is.

you should definitly pick out which fish are your favorites. then take all the rest of them back and start over. you are aware that balas and oscars both get quite large, correct?

what size tank(s) have you got? that's always a good place to start.

[1] i brought my tank and the fish came with it apart from the sharks and the oscurs

[bunjiweb]

Do you know the dimensions of your tanks? Judiging by the pictures i would have thought its at least 55G if not more..

You appear to have firemouths, rainbow cichlids, oscars, mbuna cichlids.

ja, i figured as much that you bought them as a set. good call on selling the other fish! although three oscars in a tank... you may want to talk to the guys in New World Cichlids about that.

I think some of you guys were really mean with your responses - almost as if to say "what an cruel idiot you are". He came here for help guys ! Instead of making stupid remarks you can give some advice (those of you who haven't).
Regrettably I can't give advice, as those are not the types of fish I have.
