Spare tank.. What should go in it?

[themikestro]

Hey!

I recently upgraded my tank and so my old one is going spare, I was going to stick a pair of goldfish in it, but I thought I'd consider my options.

It isn't particularly big at around 60cmx25x30 so I was thinking about a pair or small group of cichlids......

I've owned Kribensis before and my current tank has Angels and Keyholes in, so I was keen to try something else.

Obviously whatever goes in there couldn't be too big but I want something a bit showy..... Firemouths or a couple of Mbuna Malawi's, but would this be a big mistake? Maybe Rams? My other question is would an algae eater of some kind be safe with this lot or is it a species only option?

Put me straight and suggest anything that might work.

Without alteration the water compostion veers slightly towards acid and is pretty hard.

Thanks!

I'll probably ask the smae question in the african's forum.

Butterfly cichlids are really nice. Rams too. And for your algea eater question SAEs or SFlyingFoxes are awsome.

u would only be able to put a pair of rams in ur 2 foot(60 cm) the other fish will grow way to big for ur tank. u could get a small b nose for ur algae problem
