Question Tank Size For Calvus Pair

I am starting a Tanganyika tank which will probally one day be moved to a 125g but right now I am going to get a pair of white calvuses how many gallons do I need for these fish I have a limited area right now and I could fit a 44g pentagon or I was thinking of building my own tank from acrylic 60g 24x24x24 So would the 44g be good for a full grown pair of calvuses or what also what goes along with these that could fit in with them in a 60g or 44g.

Brichardis are good, so are lemons, and tropheus if you can aford them.

If you have a big enough tank with enough hiding places, pH of around 7, you can keep virtually any fish together as long as all the fish are around the same size and these two groups of fish are avioded:
Serrasalmus
Tetradon
(figure eights and dwarfs are the
exception).

I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families:
Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.
