Adrienne Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Can these fish be kept together. :-? I have Kribs and there are Brichardi on tm at the moment. The seller suggests they are okay with kribs and community fish but I thought they were too aggressive. Do want a few tank mates for the kribs though if poss.

livingart Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 pretty agressive and possesive over space when breeding or defending fry i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 I guess you could try them together however as livingart said they are aggressive when spawning and for territory, however, as most know Kribs can be also :lol: :lol: Yet the Brichardi can pack a bit more punch... I certainly wouldn't say Brichardi are fine in a smaller fish community tho with tetras etc, I have heard of someone getting away with keeping one, but more than one hmmmm :lol: Brichardi live in a tight knit family unit and work together raising young, so if you were to get a number of them, down the track once everything is settled and they are breeding, your Kribs could end up looking a bit battered or cowering in a corner... Also lastly keep in mind that your Brichardi do prefer somewhat harder water conditions. HTH 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted October 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Thanks, thats what I thought and when reading tm I didn't think what they said was quite right. I'll wait until I get my cichlid tank up and running in the new year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
