yes it does, lol.

but for the people in the US to help we do need to know what the gallons are. I know that where I live we never really went over the conversions, so I am not sure.

But in a 50 gallon there shouldnt be any of the problems I listed, so Black angel is probably correct.
silly wrs... google.com is your friend

type in "190 liters to gallons" and it does the conversion for you ;) :rolleyes:

On a quick aside, it'll even convert cubic inches to gallons... B)
yea it will convert any measurement to any corresponding measurement...miles, kilometers, mg/L, gallons, teaspoons, cups, ounces, grams, etc etc etc

just FYI, 50 gallons is also equal to 800 cups ...lol :whistle: ..sorry, too much caffeine

the male will be bigger and have a hump to his head and a tapered look to the belly. the female is usually smaller and has a rounded abdomen. when they ae about to breed the males breeding tube is long and thin whereas the females is shorter and more blunt.
the tank is big enough for them not to be territorial though, do they swim together when they arent fighting?
if you have noticed them squaring up to each other and they flick their heads and push out the ventral fins then that is more about territory.
any chance of pics?
While that may be true for other cichlids, angels are impossible to sex based on physical appearance ;)

Pretty much every cichlid will lock lips with another cichlid (Be it the same species or not). Usually this is a form of fighting and occasionally breeding.
 
My pair has never locked lips. They are so gentle with each other. On the other hand my males have locked lips (especially when figting over females) and usually one will get pretty beaten up. Keep an eye on them and be prepared to separate them if need be.
