| Yes they do poop alot,but I had about 50 Cichlids ranging from 2"to8" in my 60g and never had a problem.You just have to keep the water changing up.Unless you don't want to see all that poop than I wouldn't get anymore.In my 30g korner tank I had 11 Angels and 5 Rainbow Sharks and 3 ABN and about 30 Lemon Tetras in there and never had a problem either.I'm just saying you can do it its just a matter if you want to. | |
