Geophagus etc - what size tank?

Recommended Posts

I just wanted to get peoples thoughts on stocking rates. I have a 4ft 180l tank with 2 angels and 2 juv hecklii and some small bristlenose. Filtered by a large sponge filter and 2 ice cream filters. I change about 25% - 30% water weekly.

I thought I might try and add 3-4 red humps or Orange Head Rio Tapajos. Just wondering how long before the fish will outgrow the tank. Should I allow 1 fish per 40l?

G'day glo

The orange heads do not grow that large. so you may be in luck and not need to move them to bigger quarters. But I have not tried this combination so it is not 100% for sure.
