another aba aba thread

They are cool but mean as hell. You can't keep them with any other fish and who wants a single fish in one tank? Gets really boring IMO

I wouldnt call my aba mean, just a piscivore... hes very good at being a predetor, but hes been beat up by smaller fish that i thought would become snacks for him...

as for the size a 125 should last a few years ... i agree that at 18" they slow down alot. atm my brucey is in a 40 breeder thats a low light setup with some plants and enjoys hiding and dare i say playing around them. hes about 1 yr old and was 3" or so when i got him. i would say a 120 would last 4 yrs with the extra depth for turning space ect and a 180 being ideal... but a 125 may work.

btw love the set up egon!

Wow awesome set up Egon. As much as it pains me I think I am going to hold off on the aba aba. I am just not comfortable getting the fish without knowing that I will definitely be able to upgrade. Thanks for all the input.

If you get an opportunity to buy one you should. It could be years from now before you see a 1 foot Aba available. They seem to be very rare at 6" and larger. The small baby ones are typically more common but very difficult to keep alive.
