I have two of these, they are realy attractive fish, I have had to move them into seperate tanks as they proved to be very territorial. Mine are still small at about 9 inches and are housed one in each of my 400 l malawi set ups. They are very hardy and are flourishing in these set ups even though it is not what they would ideally be suited to. I am sure the purists will question my set ups but still. They are a nice fish and seem to be swamping the market at the moment.
Hope this helps
