Archo/cryto keepers

[cichlidfish]

I have a 6'' convict and a 3'' HRP. I have been thinking about getting nano and panamense. I have 2 questions:

1. How big do they get full grown and do you have pics?

2. Are HRP's the smallest growing of the archos or crytos?

 

[ktluvsfish]

I used to keep:
Nigrofasciata (striped)
Centrarchus
Spilurus


I'm currently keeping:
Nigrofasciata (marbled)
Cutteri
Sajica

I believe that Nanoluteus are the smallest of the group.

i believe nanoluteus and HRP are the 2 smallest growing to approximately the same sizes

For those looking - jgentry, like jonclarke said, and Rapps. Fishfarm is another good source. I got a sajica in Dec from Rapps, but haven't check his site lately.

can you keep different species of archocentrus/cryptoheros without them cross bredding?

i have 7 sajicas in a 75 gallon and looking for something else to put in there
