Syno and bristlenose


Ant N

Recommended Posts

I have just added three syno. multi. cats to my 500ish lt african tank. I already have three larger standard brislenosed cats in there. The BN 's are flaring there spines and gills at the smaller synos and chasing them out of hiding. Will they all setle down or have I made a boo-boo ?, Because to net out anything I will have to move a ton of rock work!

They're just sorting out the pecking order and establishing territories with the new arrivals. Things should settle down and neither can do much to actually hurt each other unless they're fighting for a breeding cave. Even a small BN can kill a larger pleco with the curved ancistrus spikes.

You shouldn't have much of a problem with them, give them a couple days to sort things out.
