MR_CICHLID Fish Addict Posts: 770 Kudos: 582 Votes: 124 Registered: 12-Aug-2003  | Now i'm not overly familiar with this species of Tilapia. However, Tilapia grow to at least 12" in most cases, and as we know the bigger the fish, the bigger the tank. Depending on the number you want the bigger the tank gets  But 125g, is the smallest i'd go for even a pair.Someone with a bit more knowledge of this exact species maybe able to clarify a bit but size wise their very comparable to say oscars or frontosa........  |
