Will these mix? Would you buy?

Hi guys,

I know a guy who's offered to sell me his 72x18x15 inch tank, with a stand, some rocks, and about 35 maylandia greshaki, and 20 pseudotropheus elongatus (all around the 2 inch size), for £140 (around $200 I think...)

I already have a 4ft tank with stuartgranti, acei, blue zebra, currueleus (all around the 2 inch mark), and 2 M.Aurateus, and 2 M. Maingano (around the 4 inch size) (total 20 fish).

I am only going to be able to run one tank, so was wondering if I could mix these fish into either of the tanks (probably more likely to be in the 6ft), whilst I try and sell them off/give them away?

Thanks!

I would say no. For a 90 gal tank that would be way to many fish. Even the 35 greshakei and 20 elongatus when fully grown would be to many fish for that tank.

OK. Thanks for that...Since theyre still small though, would I be able to keep them together for say a week, before taking most of the greshakei and elongatus out?
If not, what other options can you suggest, if I buy the tank (it seems like a pretty good deal to me - is it worth getting a 90g, when i've got a 55g?)

Thanks
