Another 2 Tats bite the dust

[ShadowStryder]

I don't see how the Acestrorhynchus (Cudas) could possibly hold up to the other
predators you have housed with them. They will quickly be outgrown, and rarely
exceed 12 inches. And that is if they are Falcirostris. Other Cuda species stay 10" or
less.
Although I do like the whole Predator theme you have going, I foresee some future Cuda
casualties through predation occuring.

Sorry for your Tat situation, and looking forward to future updates.

temperment between the species is ok, but yea size matters. the cudas grow much faster than the hydrocynus family but max size may be an issue. the cudas keep to themselves, i will offer them some topside cover, hoping they will stay out of harms way. The cudas in the photo above are the juvi grow outs in seperate tank. One Ace. Fal. I've had since a juvi is near a foot long now and lives with the others in the cohab tank with hydro's. No issues, no damage. But the red tails, half the size, they get shanked every now and then. monitoring for now, will make adjustments when necessary.
