Getting seven to grow out in a 75 should be fine. I grew out six in a 40 gallon. Just feed light and keep the water clean unless your trying to grow them fast.

Price all depends on species. Intermedia, xingu, and brokos will cost you $100+ for 3-4”. Captive bred Kel, Azul, Orino, and Tems should run about 40-65 for 3-4”. Farmies are cheap but I wouldn’t get them since they are likely hybrids.

If you find something rarer like pinima or some of the rarer true ocellaris species, they’ll cost a bit more than the intermedia.

WC bass come in waves. tcav88 tcav88 , Thomas, can you chime in on this question?
sure can pinima come in normally july-august same as brokopondo. The rest of the species come multiple times a year most of the time.
