What size tank will i need?

[ssj_brolly1]

Hi i was just wondering what size tank i would need in order to house a female Jaguar cichlid, a female Loisilli cichlid, a female texas cichlid, a female green terror, and a male Jack Dempsey. They are all small right now about 3-5 inches. They are currently housed in a 125 gallon with a Mayan and flowerhorn. Thank You.

for those fish i'd say a 5x2 would be cool.

but you should go as big as you can cos in the future you'll wanna upgrade!

120 should be fine for awhile. but i would suggest upgrading to a 180 or 210.

You're 125 will be fine for a while. However the Jag/Loiselli will get huge and eventually you need more tank.

180 gallon should do it in the long run.

Since most of your stocks are females you'll be fine for a long while but bigger is better.

If your filters can handle the bio load, and there is little territorial aggresion, aswell as no breeding pairs forming- than your 125 will be adequate.

Not any bigger than the other fish.
