Hi Cichlidman,

A lot of people probably haven't been online since last night, whether because they've been in bed / dashing off to work, or have been doing overnight shift work.

AlexN, who advised you before, may come online in the next few days and be able to advise you as he currently has kribs.  I notice, from his signature, that he keeps his male and his female in separate tanks from one another with quite a range of fish (penguin tetras in one, harlequins and cherry barbs in another). There may be a reason for him keeping them in separate tanks but it would definitely be worthwhile seeing what he suggests. Others may also have kept kribs in the past or be keeping kribs now, so hopefully people with such experience will come online later today or in the next few days and be able to advise.

In general terms, anything that swims in the mid and upper regions and likes your water should be OK. Problems tend to arise with bottom dwelling fish if the kribs breed.

I'd stick to fairly robust fast moving fish which can stand up for themselves such as barbs and danios, definitely avoid other cichlid species and any small, timid or slow moving fish.
