Tmw I'm going to add a new type of fish to my IT tank. For past 4yrs, haven't added any fish to tank, accept a 10" frontosa, which ended badly after dats ripped its find off on 3rd day.
Been wanting to add something else to tank for awhile. Today I came across 2 Black Bar SD's. I been wanting black bars for yrs, hope they work out. Store owner seems to b giving me good price on them. I pumped, never found them in stores in area b4.

good luck and wish it would work. your fish could already be very territorial. try to rearrange.
 
Just rearranged whole tank yesterday, added a few faux plants, very peaceful in tank today. I'm crossing my fingers tho too.
I'm thinking the big frontosa that got tore up was result of him bullying that my 2 smaller dats, and one night they turned on him. My larger 2 leave the others alone. So its the smaller 6-7" I worry most about.

The store has a bunch of red hooks on hand as usual, I wonder if I picked 3 of them up along with the 2 Black Bars, if they would school together. Kno my dats would b less likely to terrorize a school of them vs just having the 2 BB.

Decided I wanted a school of SD's, so got 2 black bar, and 3 red hooks, all over 4". So the silver dollars now out number my dats. Hope it works out, wasn't cheap!
