Hey i got a red texas hybrid 2 weeks ago and hes doing great in his 75 gallon. Only problem is there's not much info on these fish and i dont know what to trust. What temperature is he really supposed to be at? I keep him at 78 for now. Is that ok? I feed him northfin tropical sticks 90 percent of the time and feed him frozen food 2 times a week. Any suggestions would greatly appreciated. Thank you! Water changes once or twice a week.

It sounds like you are doing just fine with your Red Texas.
Two 25% WC's a week should keep things healthy. Temp.
range 78 - 82 degrees.
My Red Texas grew fast eating Omega One Sinking Cichlid Pellets & Omega One Cichlid Color Flakes.

Thanks the 2 smaller water changes is a good idea to minimise stress.
