Cichlid tank advice

[Turn7]

I've wanted to set up a cichlid tank for a few years now, and my current freshwater setup is need of a refresh,which has got me thinking about Cichlids once more.

I researched it a fair bit last time,and decided that I liked the idea of Peacocks.

Tanks is a 210 litre with play sand substrate and two large Eheims.

Be interested to hear any thoughts on how to go about a new Cichlid community.

What stopped me before,was I never seemed to get the same answer twice regarding stocking etc,and I don't have the faciltiy for seperation tanks.

Look forward to your views.
