Im hearing thata lot  but mine are only territory and when they are not in their bridge they are fine with other fish. maybe befause they are young still but the pet shop owner fish breeder gave me the ok with my other fish because he said they are semi agressive compared to oscars and african cichlids. so im still confused but will find out i guess.

sounds pretty full. Your going to need a bigger tank one day or less fish. However if you keep the nitrates low the fish should stay healthy. research your fish because plecos can be 14 inches eventually, RTS possibly 6 inches, leaf fish 3 to 4 inches I think. Thats allot of poop.

the cichlids may be the only ones you could have a problem with, but i would say that you tank is at full capacity :) if the cichlids are seeming fine then you dont have any problems but when they get bigger they will probably bully your smaller fish so you may want to thing about getting a seperate tank just for the cichlids
