150 a solo male or a compatible pair, lyonsi are generally considered the least aggressive, but still grow into big bulky bolshy fish.
That's an amazing collection of amphs in one tank! You have some real beauties. What size tank were they in?
Lyonsi are beautiful and amazing fish I wanted some...I believe TUIC has them right now. There are videos of the breeders on youtube. I have heard they still have quite the personality and are very personable fish.

With the latest advancements in DNA technology, there has been another revision in cichlid relationships, breaking them down further.
Former Amphilopines
alfari, altifrons, bussingi, diquis, rhytisma, longimanus, robertsoni, and rostratus are now all placed in the genus Cribroheros.
calobrensis has been places in its own genus Darienheros,
Macracanthus and margaritifir still in Astatheros, and
nourisatti is now changed to its own genus Wajpamheros

Just picked up 5 lyonsi for my new tank.They seem fairly mellow for a amphilophus.Also have 5 salvini with them in a 180 we’ll see how it goes.
