Hi,
I have four Jewel Cichlids and need to sort out a new tank for them.
I read the care sheet,
"a tank of at lease 3 foot in length for a single specimen or four foot for 2 unperd fish is a minimum plenty of hiding places should be provided as well as floating plants for cover with good filtration and moderate to fast flowing water"
I think it means 150 litres for one fish (on his own?) Does that mean I would need 600 litres for four?
that is 132 gallons. Is this right, as that seems very big?
if that is true I am guessing I would have to rehome two out of the four?
thank you for any advice.

200L = community tank
90L = guppies
154L = goldfish
100G pond = 7 fish!
