How big do these 3 species get? Trying to get a guage on the sizing of the entire genus. So far what I've found based on fishing (and some scientific) records:
Temensis - 43" (records of the full four feet)
Orinocoensis - 35"
Pinima - 33"
Thyrorus - 32"
Monoculus - 32"
Vazzoleri - 31"
Ocellaris - 29"
Intermedia - 26"
Cataractae - 26"
Piquiti - 24"
Kelberi - 24"
Melaniae - 18"
These are just the biggest sizes on record that I have found. Some of these are also just from what I've found on here. Let me know if anything should be bigger. Obviously the species with weird sizes like 33/31/29 likely have more potential for growth that would probably end up rounding them up to larger max sizes.
 
.....most,if not all of the information you seek should be in one of the cichla sticky threads.
