Besides all the other stocking lists ive posted (7) im still deciding, im back to thinking Chiclids (I know i cant spell). Is getting them any good? And can i put more then 1 in a tank, (DIffrent types). Anything special cichlids need? Besides Chiclid salt. i need advice and help, and i want the biggest chiclid that fits in a 10 gallon. I need opinion on chiclid tanks and if its a good idea or not, and special needs that are needed

I was thinking of putting a Dwarf Cichlid by itself. I only have 10 gallon so i need help on deciding on a cichlid. Maybe 2 dward cichlids???

i wouldn't put any cichlids in a 10 myself. i son't kow much about dwarves so i'm not the one to answer that. but other smaller cichlids need a tank of at least 30 gal i think. correct me if i'm wrong. so maybe dwarves but you'll need to check on that
