Cyrtocara Moorii 75 gallon tank ?

[bikinguy]

I was thinking about a peacock tank and still am but after doing some research and seeing a couple nice Cyrtocara Moorii (blue Dophins) thought it might look good having a male and 3 females alone in my tank. I realize 75 is a bit small for full grown adults and am on the hunt always for a larger tank. I would be purchasing them as juvies.

Anyone have exp in keeping these fish ?

I kept them back in the early 90s in my 125. I had three males, no fem. I really enjoyed them...pretty mellow for a malawian cichlid. Back then they were called hap. moorii.

had some years ago in a mixed african tank. they behaved well with the other tankmates no problems. they dont have too much personality IMO.
