Couple of questions sorry about red devils :D. What is the minimal tank size for a Red Devil? How big do they get? And what are good tankmates?
 
1. - 75g so they have room to grow and turn around.
2. - 12" ussually
3. - None if your going with Bare Min. If you want to go to a 125g You might get away with a pair, or if a single some type of dither. Clown Loaches, Barks of some type, smaller cichlids like cons with proper hiding places.

a 30 gallon would be good for juveniles, until they reach 5 or 6 inches then an upgrade to a 75. They like 120+ gallons more, but it's up to you.
