I've never kept africans alone.Just have to over populate the tank.It spreads out the agro.
Gotta make sure your filtration can handle it though.and reg water changes

I just got into africans. Right now all I have are some yellow tail acei. I plan on adding some yellow labs with the acei. My wife seems to like them for there color so I will be trying some different ones here soon.
