3' Shellie tank plans

MTS has struck again and its time for a new tank...

I am picking up a 36"x12"x12" tank, and am thinking of some shell dwellers... I will probably go with multis (if I ever find them for sale in the GTA), but I saw some Julidochromis marlieri at the pet store today which seem pretty interesting too. I would like to keep a calvus, or possible a pair as well...

Current plan is to have the multies (chance for more than one pair in the 3' tank?) and one or one pair of calvus. I am going to have a few plants, lots of rocks and shells.

How many multis should I aim for in the 3'? should I be able to get away with a pair of Calvus? Also, anyone here know where I can find some of these fish in the area?

Thanks!
