Geophagus tapajos is a 30 gallon long or 40 breeder

[Rellad]

So I just found a 4ft by 12 by 12 aquarium(30gallon) and I know geophagus tapajos minimum tank size is a 55, but I know that is mainly for the square feet on the bottom since they are bottom dwelling cichlids, so would a 4 ft 30 gallon be okay,

They like to be kept in groups of 6-8 or more a 55 is the minimum a would recommend a 90 gallon would be more suitable in the long run
