Compressiceps likely will not be able to compete with the brichardi. I have tried twice with poor reults. Just one persons opinion but I would suggest finding a fish that occupies a different part of the tank strata than the brichardi.

I moved last weekend and am looking for a 50-60 gallon nice aquarium with dark wood colored stand with matching hood and lights to replace my current 40g display tank. This will be a nice show tank for my living room, and my girl friend is extremely picky about everything matching and looking "nice". I've been looking on craigslist for a couple weeks but have yet to find anything suitable that hasn't already sold. This will be used for my lake tanginkan cichlids. And for the question... The fish that will be going in the new tank and are currently in my 40g tank, are 6 brichardis. I love these fish. They are very active and colorful, and haven't been at all aggressive to each other. I have read that they can get very aggressive to any new fish, and if breeding. I have a LOT of rocks and caves. I will be adding some more brichardis in the near future, but would be interested in hearing any feedback about adding other lake tang. cichlids? Perhaps a couple calvus or Compressicep cichlids? I hope everyone is doing well.
