Hey everyone, 
A friend of mine bought a tank which came with cichlids they didn't want. 1 electric yellow 6-7cm, two Aulonocara baenschi? (1M 1F?) 6&8cm  and a blue dolphin 11-12cm. All measurements are a guesstimate haha. 

They were housed in a 90WX35DX65H approx 204L 

I have a 120Lx35Dx45H approx 189L tank (pic is link below)

Is this too small for these fish to live happily? 

Cheers 
Cameron

Simple but effective. Nice tank. I've got a soft spot for dolphins, nice fish with great personality. Would look flash as Michael Jackson with an external filter hidden away!

It was grown in a planted tank, thought I'd give it a shot :P 

Its java moss tied on with fishing line. Then grown out for a month or 2 haha.

Your tank has a bigger foot print than the original, so it's got to be better as far as more room goes.
