D.apps Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 Hey all I have been trying to research this fish but there doesnt seem to be alot out there (that i understand) so the next option is to ask the experts (you guys/gals). What are they like, how big do they get, what tank size tank is needed, Do they go better in colonys, just basic info. THANKYOU IN ADVANCE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViS Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 They will grow to around 30cm, depending on tank size and diet. Best in a colony of 1 male to every 3 or 4 females and a 6 ft tank (or 5x2x2) would be absolute minimum size for a colony of 2 males and 4-5 females. The bigger the better. They are also happier with no other fish in the tank other than their own colony. They are renowned for being fussy eaters and many will only take a particular food. They are a predator in the wild, but you wouldn't think it after sitting there watching them laze around all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
