Seems like every fish I am taken with lately has almost no information on it. Before I move heaven and earth to get my hands on a group of these, I was curious if anyone had some more info on them.
So from what I understand these are pretty easy to keep and breed like most Hemichromis, reaches around 4-5 inches, and are less aggressive than some of the other 5 spot jewels? Is this accurate? Some places put the size more in the 7 inch range, but the videos I have seen of them don't seem to reflect that.
My interest was keeping them in a 75 gallon African themed tank with things like congo tetras. butterfly fish, or a small bichir species. I have done set-ups like this before with the Red jewels, but I was not sure about Frempongi. I would consider Elongatus instead if those fit what I am looking to do better.
