How long Tell i need to upgrade?

[Bizzaro]

I went out today and traded my 14inch Channel Cat, 4 bluegill (said he wasn't able to give me money for them or SC) And got 15bucks for the catfish.. .Sound like a good deal? heh But i wasn't leaving with out fish... I'm Looking for fish for my Pool room tank. So i walked out with 2 oscars, Green Terror an Texas cichlid. They are all about 2 inch... I have 3 cons about an inch and one thats a 2inch... Can i put them all into a 60G tell they get bigg and toss them into my 240? Only the 2 pink cons are breeding or tring too... paired off now... So how long can they last?

If im posting this in the wrong area, Which i think i am Plz move but since im talking about muti fish i thought this page would be fine. Thanks.

based on the preiciple that a lot of cichlids seem to go by:
if you feed them well and often and do WC's often too, you can get about 1" a month off them.
if you feed a little more sparingly and not as generous on the WC's, they'll last a little longer in small tanks.

first of all man.. its TIL short for UNTIL not "tell" ok?
imo, depending how u much u feed them and do ur wc...

alot of feeding and water changes = 4-6months?
lil feeding = 6-8 months?

Ah ok i see what u are all basing that on... So 3cons can get along with my 2oscars and green and texas? this is at small size... like 2 inch.. tell they get about 5-6 and then going into the big house
