the mbuna i got now are the bottom 2 on that list.. the cobalts n elect. yellows, they will be between 3-6 inch when the haps r introduced.. there will be a large amount of swmming room as well as some dense rockery! so they will have a fair bit of protection...
so what do u rekon about the haps with the mbuna???

I'd increase your numbers, you'll be a bit understocked with what you have listed. Go for six of the two mbuna you have listed. I'd also lose the Frontosa, they prefer to be kept in groups and need at least a six foot tank. A solitary Frontosa is not a happy Frontosa.
The only potential problem area that I see is the Cobalts...They might be a little boisterous for the haps, especially if you wind up with more than one male Cobalt.
