I have two daffodil types, one with the kinda marroon boddy and yellowish fins, and the other looks just the same, but is a pale silvery white.

The colored kind is the one that I have a mated pair, a mid-juvinile helper, and 2 babies. The silvery white are mid-juvi and I have 5 of them. Would it be okay for all of these to go into the 30 long, or should I put only the breeding pair and helper in there?

My husband got south africans... a breeding pair (and helper) of 'Nicks' he calls them, some smaller juvi 'Nicks', and some little guys (I don't know what they are, but they have a stripe vertically at their eye and a spot on their middle). He also has a Geophagus (spelling?). Who is as big as the 'Nicks' but just kinda stakes out the area right under the heater and doesn't do much else.

At least I think that is what they are. LOL

Am I right to assume his will need a 30 long as well, and will they be okay with each-other?

Also still wondering what clean-up the bottom fish are best with cichlids?
