My Thorichthys Aureus tank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yeah this tank is 60x18x26 and so far is perfect for 13 little Aureus, down the road when they start hitting 5 inches I’m sure they will start to look cramped. But I’ve had this larger tank in storage for awhile. We live in an apartment right now while we house hunt. And I barely dare to have this 120 in it. That’s why my 180 Oscar tank is at my dads for now. I can’t wait to have my own fish gallery at my house. Just gotta find the right one for the right price XD

You're probably right and making me question if I should just put the Aureums in the 125g with the Meeki. Longer term I plan to upgrade that to a 180g.

Stanzzzz7 Stanzzzz7 Gourami Swami Gourami Swami any input on the idea of mixing Meeki with Aureum/Aureus types?
 
I’ll third that on mixing the two thorichthys. I have 3 species. IME meeki are the most aggressive. Introduce them when feeding the meeki. Jeff Rapps told me this trick, and haven’t had any aggression issues adding fish to any tank.

Very nice, which 3 do you have together?
