mezzacam Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Hey, I have my 3.5ft tank (standard 4 foot height and Depth, just 3.5ft long) and about to get rid of fry that are in it.. I don't want a community tank or nothing I just want a nice tank with a paired fish, and i like the Green Terrors.. I was just wondering would it be alright to keep a male and female in a 3.5ft on their own? Thanks for any replys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 I think it should work out you should get HEAPS of fry when mine where alot smaller say 5cm i had them in a 18inch tank and they bred and were happy the 3.5 foot should be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barca888 Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Just make sure you get a male and female and when u do get the pair make sure u give the female a refuge (or for the male if he is a lil pussy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishie4me Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 well, depending on the aggression of your green terrors, i had mine in a 2.5x18x18 for a while and it did fine, until i needed tank space and had to move them into a standard 2 footer and still they bred. so i think it would be fine to put your pair into a 3.5 foot tank. but however you never know how it will go together, you might want to check on the fish more often in the first couple of dys or week just to make sure they are going fine and if there is a problem with them its not too late to fix it.

benno Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Just make sure there is plenty of hiding spaces for either male or female just depends whos more dominant in the relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
