What do you keep with your banded leporinus? Hes been eating any new fish that I add to the tank. So Im moving him to another tank. Hes about a foot long... What should he be housed with?

He doesnt nip fins, he just eats anything he can fit in his mouth.. Or chase cat fish..

Only fast moving fish or aggressive fish. Cichlids are great tankmates.
