3" monos with 2" tems?

[CichlidDan]

I have some tems lined up this saturday that I wanna grow out, I was just wondering if they would fare well with slightly bigger monos, after watching them take down my tetras almost their size I thought it would be smart to ask if anyone had experience with this. If it wont work no biggy I will just make another divider. As well do you think a 5" sun catfish/eclipse catfish would be able to take down pbass this size?

I started off with tems 2" smaller then my Monos and in no time my tems where 2" larger! you will be fine. I dunno about your cats tho.

its just one cat i think it has a few names though, but do you think I would have a problem with it trying to eat the tems or monos? I honestly dont mind if they end up eating it though.....

the sun catfish will definitely eat them

not sure about the cat,but i wouldnt risk it.
as for the pbass,no problems usually.

they'll be fine.. the tems will eventually grow to the point where you MAY have a problem. but it won't be very soon.

i personally wouldn't put the catfish in with the pbass.. but i don't know what a sun catfish is.

alright thanks for the heads up, I will toss (meaning slowly acclimate) the tems in with the monos on their side of the divider to take the cat out of the equation.
