witch ciclids are best to put together when starting tank size 60l
All cichlids can be mixed together providing the individuals have room to find their own territories. Here is a good site to browse through to see the different types http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/categ. . You will have to give your tank a chance to build up the beneficial bacteria by using ammonia, or a small hardy fish ( http://www.bluecrayfish.com/cycle.htm. ).

Check your spelling first.
Secondly,the answer is NONE. First off you must cycle your tank for 8 weeks or so to get the bio filter working. Then add one fish and leave for a while. Keep regular checks of ammonia, nitrite and nitrate when cycling and wait for them to settle down. Also check at each addition of fish and wait untill settled again before increasing bio load (adding more fish).
As for Cichlids in particular, this is not my field. I am a marine reef keeper, sorry.
Agreed you must cycle the tank first with some insignificant fish like feeder guppies. Your Cichlids will eat them later. I have numerous cichlids together. As long as you provide many hiding places by building a rock formation you can mix a number of them. I have a mix of very territorial Cichlids (P.Socolofi for example) and then not so territorial (e.g Blue Dolphins). The Yellow Lab males are very territorial and aggressive. All of these live together though if you provide each with what they need. Read up some more about it on the Internet before deciding.
witch chilids?? never heard of this species
you can put oscars and parrot fish together
don't put cichlids in a 60L tank! they will get far to big. Your tank is tiny. If you want cichlids i wouldn't go for a tank any smaller that 150L, and then you could only keep about 6 of them.
Im not sure about some of the above answers. I have had cichlids for years so have a little knowledge on them. I agree that you need to cycle your tank and about having the little hiding places but other than that, this is what I know. African Cichlids do very well. They come in diffrent sizes and colors. I have a 35 gallon tank that is currently sustaining five cichlids. They are very territorial and each has their own little area of the tank that they hang out in. No matter what type of chichlids you decide on, do not mix them. Keep africans with only africans, etc.
Cichlids come from huge bodies of water.
A small tank for cichlids in 150 liters, if you want to give them a good home you need 300 liters or more.
If you only have cash / space for a 60 liter tank start with tetra's and corydoras catfish rather.
This is a very helpful site.
