fish size

[gothicrose5]

i have a 37 gallon cichlid tank and i have about 13 fish in there currently...i feed 1 time per day i am wondering if they will only get as big as the tank will allow or out grow this tank

Depends on the kind of cichlids. Africans will get 4-5 inches. Oscars and similar swill get much bugger.

there African cichlids lake Malawi region they are from walmart.....i mis spoke there in a 75 gallon now that i want to put into a 37 gallon tank..

I wouldn't do it they will reproduce quickly and fill the 75 before you know it.
