I've never kept petrochromis trewavasae before. I'm just doing some research. I just got rid of all my nano tanks save one, and got a hold of a 80 gallon, 48 inch tank. Could I keep a small group in this tank? If so how small?
Alternatively, I thought of keeping some Tropheus "cherry spots" sp. Bulu, but I've never kept tropheus in under a 120 gallon except for fry. I really can't go bigger with my tank for now. I'm consolidating my efforts into a single tank since I've got less time with my new job, a 1 year old, and another child on the way. I originaly set up the tank hoping to get S. pindu (lost cause) vs. keeping a breeding group of Betta macrostoma (but I'm kind of betta's out after 4 years of focusing on them). My wife wants me to get a pair of Paratilapia bleekeri, but every time I've had a group of these in tanks under 200 gallons I'm left with only one huge psychotic fish at the end of 2 years. I need advice!
