I walked into my LFS yesterday, and saw two baby O's (Red) wanting out.... I have a 55 gallon tank all ready for fish.... Was thinking about Malawi's....

But I reall want to save these little guys, how long can they be in my 55 gallon together before they need to be homed somewhere else?

They are only about 1 inch each...

You'd have about 6 months I'd say.

Should I put two filters on this tank, I know these fellas are messy....

Filtering is important yes, but water changes are even more important.
