Stocking my 29 gallon?
I have a 29 gallon tank with all my fish in the 3-4 inch range. One 3 inch peacock cichlid, one electric yellow, one red cherry, two zebra cichlids. all lake malawi. The yellow cichlid is sometimes singled out by the other fish as is the peacock. What can i do to ease the agression? i have the rocks stacked almost halfway up the tank and the temperature is at like 75 degress fahrenheit.
Yeah i know pytr pytr. but i dont have the money or space yet and my cichlids are all eating so its not too urgent yet. and thanks for the tip. anyone else please leave more tips

erase the aggression ? nothing
reduce it ? maybe
1. double the amount of rock, or change the piles around and/or add a ton of tall, bushy plastic plants.
2. increase the amount of water flow/filtration, by adding another filter so that the water flow from both filters totals about 15 times the tank volume.
note: your tank is very small for african cichlids, you should think about a 55 gallon or larger and a ton more rocks and filter flow.
