acei in a 3ft?

[cejones94]

I've done a lot of reaserch on this. Some places say no,they get to big. Some places I saw they only get about 5 or 6in long and say that a pair would work.
I have 3 yellow labs that i (after seeing many people have kept them in 30 gallons) decided that they would do fine in a 46 bow. Would they get along
Anyways I've always gotten the best and most advice here so I want to know what y'all think about this. I've done lots of reaserch and gotten conflicting answers. Hope someone can help.

There are so many other types of mbuna, I would look into something else. They really need a 6ft tank bc they are very active swimmers. Also, you want to slightly overstock each type you choose you minimize aggression. You may have problems if you don't have the proper male to female ratio. Bc of that I think Acei is a bad choice, there are tons of others to choose from. Demasoni maybe? But you need at least 10 of them so they don't murder eachother.

You tank looks good but to keep mbuna you need to add alot more caves.

Aceis need bigger tanks, they like to swim around, a lot!

I have 6 in my 4ft and wish I could give them more space. They will have a 220 soon though.
