I purchased 4 firemouth chiclids 3 female and 1 male apparently, turns out its 3 male and 1 female, will this be a problem? There lip locking.

I also have 1 blue acara I had 2 but 1 turned out to be a canibal and chewed the other, so I got rid of it and kept the chewed up one.
I have 2 moody male Bolivian Rams.
1 female bristle nose pleco
1 sunshine pleco
2 paki loaches
2 clown loaches

Ps I new to this but water quality is perfect no casualties atm.


Cheers.

I don't have any idea abut that combination of fish but I do know that you're going to be asked how large of a tank you're keeping them in. Tons of great info here an very helpful members. Good luck and enjoy your fish.

Firemouths (Thorichthys meeki) is a medium sized (6"+) Central American cichlid; definitely not a dwarf cichlid. Still, not an especially aggressive species. Due to their size and being a territorial cichlid, they'll need a larger tank (40 breeder/55 gallon).
