You can keep an established pair or trio of multipunctatus in a 10 gallon, but as the fry mature they'll need to be moved out.

aquarist classified? ive seen them recently on there for a £1

Sometimes they come up on Ebay (at a price). I daresay Tyneside aquatics or Kesgrave Aquatics have them or can get them and will ship too (at a bigger price, though they are quite reasonable IMO).. OR have you tried to find out if there is a local cichlid society/club ? Doubtless members there will be able to help out. Good luck and lets see the tank when its set up
