i have an 8 inch red tiger motoguense that i adore in an 135 gallon tank....
lately he has been beating the s@*$ out of everybody. i also have a 90 gallon african cichlid tank, and also in there....there is an electric blue hap that is as mean as hell. well i got to thinking i going to put the hap with the red tiger and let nature take it's course (they would never meet in nature :hitting: ) well it has been two weeks ....and there best buds claiming the whole tank to themselves.
the hap is maybe 5 inchs and the rtm is 8. at first they locked lips for a couple of hours but they got over it fast. other occupants are 10 inch oscar and a 9 inch green terror. i'll post pics of the hap and the rtm teaming up on the oscar. it's quite amusing :rofl:
 
cool get some pics
 
my cousen is like that with his fish. he dont care about the price
he is growing some oscars for my sh gunna make nice videos
survival of the fittest
im like that also
 
blueJD you got PM, i gotta dump these MFK bracelets on you to pass out and I gotta see this 135g.
 
you know where to find me. i'll take them all! sweet!
 
i'm thinking about getting the same combo of fish. i'd love to see those pics, after a couple more posts, of course!
 
hey bluedemp. I have a 10" male red moto. the fish is the s!@#@. you should let him do what he wants. you should try to breed him. its cool.
 
In my experience anytime I put any african with CA/SA there was little to no aggression between them they were always more aggressive toward their own with the exception of buttikoferi which went after anything and everything
 
I,m sure it's not very amusing to the oscar or the gt.
