How Many Yellow Lab Cichlid in a 75-Gallon Tank?

In a 75-gallon tank, plan on about 1–2 Yellow Lab Cichlid, leaving room for tankmates and filtration headroom.

Why

Stocking is driven by adult size and waste output, not just fish count. Yellow Lab Cichlid reaches about 4" with a heavy bioload, and needs 74–82°F water at pH 7.6–8.6. Always cycle the tank and test water before adding livestock.
