Can your African chiclids live with your gourami?
99% of the African cichlids are very aggressive fish and will more than likely cause the untimely death of anyother type of fish (and usually same type) that you place within the confine of your aquarium. Also, one should note that PH levels differ between the two. While you can acclimate up and down with fish (Most African cichlids locally are kept PH 7.0 instead of recommended PH 8.2) not all will take the change in stride.
