my first colony consisted of about 30 then my second and third colonies were of about 25 to 30. if i had a 300 i would fill it up with a large group of about 80 or so. i have seen people make it with as little as 2 to three i guess it depends on each fish

beautiful pics, tropheus may be one of my favorite genus, Was wondering what size colony you started with and at what # did aggression begin to cease? I have a 300 gallon with roughly 80 africans and would really like to have a stable colony of trophs in there but unfortunately availability where I live prevents me from buying them in bulk and so it's almost like highlander status where "there can be only one". Used to have 10 and currently down to 5 total and only 1 of each species. Any thoughts?
