jim r Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I would not put anything else in if you want to breed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananalobster Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 If you want to breed them I wouldn't put anything in big enough to eat the fry.. Which is pretty much anything lol. You could try a decent sized school of neon tetras? Although not 100% on whether they would go for the fry or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 tetra's will clean all the fry up. In a 4' you could have a pair of Discus, A pair of Apisto's and a breeding group of cory's as well as the Rams. They could all breed as well with out having to move any of them.

BK Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Pleco's can be alright but I wouldn't risk it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
