So I was just looking up some fish from another thread, and that led me to some questions...
I know venustus, livingtonii, fusco, and polystigma are closely related (same genus)...
1. What's the difference in temperament and size between a fusco and livingstonii? Except for more red on the fusco they look almost identical...
2. At what size (roughly) do venustus start getting the more blue coloration on the face? Mine is over 5" and no blue showing yet...
3. Would a venustus, livingstonii, fusco, and polystigma be able to hold their own against each other? I've got a venustus and livingstonii now (my 2nd livingstonii, I miss my first), always wanted a polystigma... And hadn't seen a fusco until today and I'd love to have one...
If they'd get along together then I'd have to look at the chance of mass murder with the rest of their tankmates, lol. Between outbreaks of murderous intent off and on (that I think are solved again), my tank needs heavier stocked again so looking at options.
Thanks!
