A mix of Monster fishes

[Red Aimara]

Nice community. Very impressive mix!

Thanks man. It took a couple of months - tinkering with different types of fishes to strike the current balance.

There are two tinfoil barbs (as dithers), a docile Cuban gar, Mega Barrae, pleuro and common Pleco in the mix as well.

How's the temperament of the Aimara ?

Does your dragon bother it ?

The Aimara is actually the smallest guy inside. It's a calculated addition knowing how aggressive it can become. At the moment, it's place in the tank is ranked pretty low - LOL!

The Aro doesn't really take notice of the Aimara. Dominant yet benign alpha of the tank. I actually believe the current mix works because of having him inside.

Is that a jardini or an Asian?

It is actually an old injury to its jaw; I think about 3 years back. Healed up but the scar remained.

A Megalancitrus and a common pleco. So similar in appearance yet it took me 5 years to track one down. LOL!



Photobombed by the pleuro.
