Does anyone here keep Steatocranus casuarius? If so what would be a few good tank mates? could you keep them with tropheus?

Lots of other nice west african species available. I'd suggest a west african community tank. Lots of options. I've got my steatocranus with nanochromis parilus, gobiocichla ethelwynnae, sarotherodon linnellii, stomatopia mariae, and chromidotilapia kingsleyae at the moment. Not all are riverine, but mix well, at least for now. Some are still juvies. Many other possibilities. Maybe even stomatepia pindu, tilapia snyderae, etc. All of these do well for me in moderately hard water. Some west africans require softer water to do well or to breed, so do some checking before buying.
