Was this tank on MFK? I thought I'd recognised it.

Please share some of your thoughts about Checkerboard cichlids. Hello, Beautiful fish! Do you think a very heavily planted ten gallon (with lots of hides) would be too small for a trio? how many are in this tank and what sexes? Are they aggressive at all outside of the females protecting eggs? Thanks for your opinions!
