June 16, 200917 yr comment_312838 My large community fish are soon going to a new home. I love glowlight tetras and was hoping just to fill the 3ft with them (and residing bristlenoses). But then i thought...........hang on! my killies are breeding ok, why not just start releasing them into the big tank? Would they be ok with the tetras? there's plenty of plants and wood to hide. or should i splash out seeing as i am officially getting older next month and would like nothing better than more fish :lol: Report
June 16, 200917 yr comment_312848 what type of Killies? I have had Australes and and clowns with cardinals and rummy noses but if the killie is big enough to eat the neon they will. Report
June 16, 200917 yr comment_312849 I don't know why, but I always assumed killies were too aggressive to put in with smaller (tetras etc) community fish. If one wanted to get a killie or 2 for such a tank, what type would be best? Report

June 16, 200917 yr comment_312862 Atm I'm kind of doing a killie community tank, it is a 200l plated with 10 Australe golds, 6 clowns, ottos and more cories then I care to count. I'm still looking at what other type I can add to it but with what is in there atm it still looks pretty cool. Report

It's ok many people misinformed about Killies, I found that Australes were easy to start with and are probable a good choice. Report

June 17, 200917 yr Author comment_312932 pic of the tank i would guess, would like to see it too. Will a few males be ok together too? Report
June 17, 200917 yr comment_312934 ive found males together to be no worries at all. i did see one breeders setup where there wouldve been at least 50 killies in a 2 footer of one species, all seemed to get along fine Report
