He is about 4 inches long. I have him in a 45 gallon tank. I would like to add more fish to the tank...

For the size of my tank, how many fish can I have that would live with my existing fish? I am also confused by what other fish can live with the male cichlid...

I'm a rookie at this. I don't think I want to breed this fish either (I have to figure out how to keep them alive first I think...). I just want some other cool looking fish that will live in the same tank without it turning into something resembling a certain border drug war...

I am open to pretty much any suggestions at this point.

Thanks!

you have a tough fish and a modest size tank, maybe a pleco, or school of giant danios.
