Satanoperca leucosticta or red head tapajo

[RD.]

IMO leucosticta would do better in a 6ft tank, fully mature adults can get up to 9-10" (and yes, I have seen them this size) and they can be fairly active fish. I personally think that adult tapajos are better suited to a 90 gallon.

And I've also seen 10" SL leucosticta, though only once. Still possible with proper care.

Agreed. And anyone who says they can't get that length hasn't been to the Oregon zoo here in Portland. That school of percas is in with a massive anaconda ( spelling?)

How many adult tapajos can I have in a 90 gallon?

I like fish they are my friends. If I could be a fish I would. That is all

Could I have 8?

In a 4ft 90 gallon, I would think the best case scenario is two adult breeding pairs. Personally I would just keep the 4 Tapajos that you already have, grow them out and see how things play out.
