I know you guys have probaly answered this a million times, but im just curious.
I was wondering what is the smallest tank a pair of kribs could live in and be VERY comfortable. I am asking this because my kribs are in a big 125 with other cichlids and some of my cichlids are gaining the 7 inch mark and i don't want them to get eaten. (i experienced this was my livingstone eating my blue ram :( pitty we cant give them mouth to gill. My father won't let my get anything that is too big, so if there is anything just put it down for me, and any advise you could give me, i would be much greatful.

eh 12 may be pushing it...that might be successful for breeding but probably not for living in

15 gallon would be fine. It has the same footprint as a 20 gallon. The only difference is the height, and for most cichlids (kribs included) the height of the tank doesnt matter.

a 20 long is fine, but you can use the standard 20 as well.

20H would be good for breeding by themselves, but if you want toher fish go for the 20 long.

A 20L would be perfect, thought a 20h would work as well with a smaller footprint... also a 15g. The added length for the kribs and the fry are just nice to have.
