Abit cramp bro especially the width and height if you are keeping them past 15". Then if sump or ios more space will be sacrificed for the overflow compartment too

I would recommend at least minimum 6x2.5x2.5 tank.
cos from 3 aros, it can become 5 or 7 n more as the poison gets deeper n deeper...

3 pc, there may be fights more severely. If you planning to keep long term, I would suggest a bigger tank and more other fishes to cut down the fights.
