HandS Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 no, but they look very cool, have you got/seen them??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Currently have some in a Hastings LFS.. after doing some reading up on them, they get to around the 7 inch mark, and it pays to have them in a large group, the smaller the group the more Pirahna like they become towards one another :lol: http://species.fishindex.com/species_66 ... tetra.html After watching them out at the shop, they seem a busy fish, who is continuously looking for trouble in the tank :lol: They have them in on their own, would definately pay to :lol: They are capable of drawing blood when they reach a good size also apparently :lol: Mekhaela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snookie Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 I have actually been given 4 by my LFS , as they were being trouble makers . and Know one wanted them .would be nice to try and breed them If they dont kill each other that is ! Such a pretty fish ,for something so nasty ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snookie Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 do you think they will be ok with a pink tailed chalceus ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 In all honesty I don't think I would put them in with anything, I have read they can also take on oscars and do damage, nasty nashers. Is there any place you can get more? The ones down this way are in on their own (as in seperate species tank) Mekhaela Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afrikan Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 As far as I know they are not on the lists anymore, and to be honest, they are definately a fish that I would want orders for if I had a LFS, not the easiest to shift because of the nature that they are :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
