Ged Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I don't keep them I agree with Citypainter that the males can be very territorial and aggressive to other tank mates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREAQ Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Most Melanochromis can be pretty aggressive not just the male but also the females, they like to stake out a fairly large territory so give them some space to swim, and maybe put them in with some other aggressive types or fish larger than them.
