Hey Everyone, I posted a thread about indo pacific tarpon awhile ago to gather research about them. Slowly getting the 210 gallon tank together... hopefully tomorrow will be picking up the stand and canopy then going to wait a month or so to find the best priced tank with overflows. So here are my questions:
If I was to purchase an Indo Tarpon at 4 inch, well fed and appropriate water changes given what would be the growth rate till about 6-7 inches? As I feel this would be best appropriate to avoid being eaten by future hystrix or motor rays (which I know can't last forever).
Pretty sure the info is a middle dweller of the tank, I currently have a group of orange head goes at about 2.5 to 4 inches will the indo be tempted to eat them even tho I heard they have a peaceful reputation?
Would Orange Head Geos and the Indo Tarpon work together?
I also have some silver dollars as well as 2 yellow severums however will probably be giving them away....or the the silver dollars to try and get different colors going any suggestions of tank mates with numerous colors will be appreciated.
Also if you have a sump, what size and set up are you using for your indo or just heavy bioload.
Any tips for keeping indo tarpon?
