Hi guys
Im new to yhis forum and have a few questions.

I have been into malawi predators for many years and would like to try something new.
my friend bought several ocellaris a few months ago and I really like them.
Im considering buying kelberi perhaps, but dont think I have enough room for them later on.
I got a 900 liter tank, 200x75x60 cm and a 880 liter tank, 180x70x70 cm.
would either of them be big enough for a adult pair, maybe together with a pair of Crenicihla?

thanks in advance
 
I think 900 liters is about 240 gallon more or less. If so you will be able to keep kels for a long time as well as other sp of cichla, but maybe not for life.
 
you should be able to keep a pair in there for life, just not one of the larger types, like tems
