Hey i saw a like 4" Black Calvus he was $70 at my lfs. Is he worth it? He looks in great shape and beautiful. what do u guys think and are they aggressive and how big do they get?

Thanks!
 
That's a pretty good price for that size calvus, they're super slow growers. They're not aggressive ime and are pretty shy. What size tank and what tankmates would you have with him?
 
Sorry didnt know.......?

No worries at all. I moved it for you so hopefully you get a few more responses. If this fish is not a roft lake cichlid please hit the report post button it and I will move it over to riverine? Sorry I am terrible with Africans.
 
Thanks guys and I really like it. It looks like a monster!
 
Those are great fish. Aqua World (they're in the vendor section) just got a bunch of them in several patterns. They aren't that big so the price is really affordable.
 
Thanks well there's one at my lfc and i was contemplating and my 30g is pretty much free for a growout cause hes only like 4 in. But im not sure about the price.
