Here are two links with information from two people who seem to know a lot:
http://www.malawicichlidhomepage.com/panis/champsochromis_caeruleus.htm
http://malawicichlids.com/mw08012.htm

Among the more notable things they mentioned are the predatory nature of the cichlid and that it would be best if the tank is at least 172 gallons in capacity.

Well here is the reason it will be fine in a 72 for now, my husband will, in the long run, get bored with the fish, he rarely keeps past the 2 year point...and that is stretching it... so again... I am looking for more info, those pages just don't have much.
