Cichlid Hybrid Sizes

[topoftheline77]

How do you predict the size that a cichlid hybrid will be? Like if you have a convict/JD hybrid would you like average the size or what?

Thanks

you can't. there is no way to know the temperament or potential size of a hybrid. the best thing to do is prepare for it to grow at least as large as the larger of the parent species if not a litle larger.
