Considering Tropheus Moorii-Suggestions/help, please

Hello!

I have a rather small 26 gallon bowfront that I'd like to use for a cichlid tank.

Does anyone know anything about T. Moorii? I really like their looks and description.

The info I can find on them suggests keeping them in large groups to control aggression, but with such a small tank, I was only considering 1 or 2, with tankmates of either 1 or 2 yellow labidochromis, and/or 1 or 2 leleupi. (either 1 of each of the lab and leleupi, or a pair)
Would it be better to just get 1 T. Moorii?

Any info or suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks, H2O

With further research, doesn't seem like such a good idea-oh, well. Please see new thread, "recommendations for 26 gallon" I could really use the advice.

with only a 26 gallon I would say passing on the tropheus is a wise move.

I've kept duboisi in a tank that was probably no larger with some yellow labs, and that worked surprisingly well, but I can't imagine moorii (far more aggressive) in that tank.
