Tank Size

Parrot Cichlids need at LEAST a 30 gallon tank. They are strong swimmers and they grow BIG!!! 30 gallons will only do for a couple of years. If you keep the water clean and feed them, you will easily need a 50 gallon tank or larger, eventually. Pet stores are notorious for under-representing the potential size of these little guys. Don't believe them if they tell you a 10 gallon will do!
