I couldn't say because under the name you have given the species does not exist.

It's sheep head acara...

Or you could have said curviceps or flag acara to keep it simple...

20 Gallons is reccomended for a pair, they are very social, so keeping them in pairs is better than alone.

At least 24"s of length of the tank is required.

If you only wanted one, a 10 gallon tank would work. But, as fish1 said, keep these guys in pairs, as they'll be much happier!

Most likely, the 3 gallons would hardly matter.
