    Default My Green Terror Cichlid male or female?

    I just got a GT cichlid and its about an inch and a half and about 2 months old i wanna know what sex it is because im going to breed it when it gets older and more mature? So can someone give me some advice or help me decide what sex it is?

    The best thing to do is buy 6 of them and let them pair off in 4ft-5ft long tank.

    I have never kept green terrors, but based on what I have read they can get as big as 12 inches. Maybe a 20 gallon tank is not big enought for even one of them

    I would suggest doing a little reseach of your own befor you beleive me, or the guy at the LFS.

    At the end of the day, it's your tank and only you are responsible for it

    Yes, that can be difficult at times

    I'm a little old school, but I have always come to trust books published by people with experiance. The below series of books has always helped me a lot. I have found the info in these books to be very accurate
