I have to start this page off my saying THANK YOU to Chris and Carol of Living World Pets in Kennewick, WA. They are the reason I have these fish and many others. If you are ever in the Tri-cities be sure and stop by there store.
Tropheus as a rule should be kept in groups of 5 to 20 depending on the species and the size of your tank. A group of 5 to 9 is, from what I have heard and read is A good number. This species of Cichlids range from rambunctious to down right aggressive, so a species tank works best. But if your like me you can't so make sure what ever you have in the tank with them can take care of themselves. Tanks should have lots of rocks and hiding places. Large (up to 50%) water changes on a regular bases is a must for long term health. (every 7 to 10 days is great).
Tank Size: 38 gallon
Tank Temp: 75 to 82

Adult size: 5.5: (13.9 cm)
