Reticulate tank size

[jere14]

Hi

I have a question. My aquarium is 150x60x60 centimeter and an biological filter 100x40x40 centimeter.
Is it possible to hold a couple of reticulates in it?

Thanks

Jeroen

i would get something bigger to house them for life. just my personal opinion.

grow out, it's fine.

A bigger aquarium is possible over 2 years is that to long for them?

That is only about a 150g tank and if the sump is full (probably not going to be) it would not even be a 200g system. Is it possible? Yes. Should you do it? I personally do not think so. I would wait until you get a bigger tank.

And is hystrix also the same size ore larger?

I kept 3 retic's in a 125 for 2 years with no issues but I was religious in my water changes. I also had about 20 other community fish in their with them ranging from 2-6 inches. I was running only a rena canister filter on the tank. I knew i was upgrading though. Hystirx and retics are comparable in size at full grown maturity. I have both in my tank. And my 6 year old hystix and my 4 year old retic are equivalant in size. Both around 14inch disk size.
