I just bought 3 baby keyhole cichlids for my 25 gal high (hex) tank. What I'm wondering, right now I have danio's, cory's and white clouds also in the tank. I have a feeling that the danio's may be too active. What do you think? Maybe I should move the danio's into another tank. Maybe my female guppies would be better housemates? I'll wait until I move the danio's as i'm sure trying to catch them would upset the cichlids even more than leaving them in. The tank has been set up about a month, everything seems good except I've noticed the ph is a bit low. 6.4. I've decided to continue with the small daily water changes i have been doing, and added some coral (in a bag) to raise the ph. The ammonia, nitrate and nitrite all tested fine. I know I should have waited a bit longer before adding the cichlids but I don't see these fish often in the LFS so grabbed them while they are there. I must admit these fish are awefully sweet.
