Re:IS THE TANK BIG ENOUGH - 2008/05/10 17:30 Assuming you are not kidding us, I am thinking, based on the aggressive nature of the fish specified, the sheer numbers of fishes listed, as well as the size potential of the fish, that a 250 gallon tank would be somewhat inadequate. I would recommend a commercial sized 500 for the health of the specimen.

Ok SERIOUSLY??????????? First off that is an interesting mix of African and New World Chiclids due to requiring different water conditions and ph levels it probably wont work for long. I am however in agreement that with the sizes those fish will grow to and the quantitiy of them a 500 gallon will be a minimum. Good Luck.
