Sorry to say it, but your probably better off findin someone else to take the RTC. They grow very large and require alot of money to properly maintain. Never mind the tank and all the equipment cost's, when he gets big feeding him will become quite exspensive. You'll have a fish that needs fish filets from your local grocer he may cost almost as much as it costs to feed yourself. When they get bigger it'll be harder to get rid of. Zoo's an aquariums are used all too many times as dumping grounds for fish like this an it's gotten to the point where many times they can't take them anymore as they have too many already. It's a shame they're beautiful fish with a great personality, but are far too much for the average hobbyist. If I may make a suggestion a nice large fish is the common Oscar. You should be able to properly care for a fish that gets to about a foot an they have great personalities and when full grown are quite impressively large. Good luck an I hope you make the best decision for you and the fish.
yesterday i put 2 fishes (i cripled them btw) with him, and today both fishes still alive.
