U're best of buying a whole lot of these fish... like 10-15 of them and grow them up together. Once they reach sexual maturity, u'll need that many of them in a 4ft tank to keep successfully. Any fewer and u'll have many casualties... need more to spread the aggression.
Beautiful fish, but like all tropheus, not a beginers fish.... Most common problem with these young tropheus is 'bloat'. Read up on bloat and what to do in case of bloat.
good luck.... and I love my Tanganyikan cichlids.
