I am interested to keep Salvini Cichlid (Nandopsis Salvini), Red Jewel Cichlid (Hemichromis Letoureaux), Green Terror (Aequidens Rivulatus) and Firemouth Cichlid (Thorichthys Meeki) as my next journey of Cichlid keeping. I am trying to learn the experience and knowledge by current or former keepers of the above-mentioned before deciding the choices, so please share readily. Thank you

Fauna: Guppy, Pelvicachromis Pulcher, Nannacara Anomala, Laetacara Araguaiae 'Buckelkopf'
That is quite a mixture of cichlids from different continents there...
Generally for all the above you need a big tank for them to deveop their territories.
Occasionally you may spot Salvini and meeki in LFS.
Can try Singa Aquarium at 304 Changi Road and Seaview.

Hypancistrus and Tanganyikan cichlids breeding
Johannes, thanks for the reply. I am not saying that I want to keep the 4 cichlid in a single tank. I don't have such a big tank right now. I am just saying I wish to keep each kind in a tank of say 2 feet, anyone have experience doing so?
