Green Texas Qs

[mbunafishkeeper]

a 75G should be fine IMO although ive found they are very slow growers.

TP are you keeping all of your pairs? cause if your not want to send one my way

 

[FSM]

If I don't try and do a pair, should I try to keep another species of cichlid with a male carpintis? I was thinking about a salvini.

 

[thefishguy7]

I'd recommend at least a 125g for a pair, they'll kill each other in a 75.(unless you have a partial divider)
Same care and growth rate as most SA/CA's, they're more difficult when small compared to most other cichlids though.
In that size, I'd try a solo male. A salvini may or may not work, depends on the fish....

Mine have grown from about 3" to 5" in about 3 months. I think a pair should be fine in a 75g.
