Most get too big and aggressive. A good substitute with platies would be 1 male dwarf gourami. I wouldn’t recommend a cichlids in a 10. Most get too big and aggressive.

If you wanted to upgrade to a 20 gallon long tank,there is a wide variety of dwarf cichlids that can be kept in a community tank,but 10 gallons is just too small.

Also the platys will not survive in the same tank with the aggressive cichlids. Cichlids are very territorial and need a tank larger than 10 gals.

Get a bigger tank, or just stick with the platies. Ian There are Cichlids that are small and peacefull enough to live with Platies, but not in a 10gal.
