I have a RCK that is about 5inches who lives with a 10in Gibbiceps and a CK who is about the same size but lives with some Emperor Cichlids and Cichla.
The problem is the Emperor's and Cichla eat all the food and the CK is having problems getting a bite if I don't feed at night.
Could I mix the two in a 55g with pipes and places for each to hide??
 
Yeah sure you can, it's pretty much like mixing 2 CKs together. And I can't wait yo see ur emperor cichlids ;) :p
 
Here you go mate, the gator has been moved to bigger digs because that thing just grows like a weed.

Awesome bro.

I would even have the nuts to try a gator gar, knowing how big they get...

So you gonna move that CK? Obviously not know at this time of night :D
 
Maybe tomorrow but I got to France on Friday for three weeks and my Dad will be looking after my fish so I may wait until I get back so I can monitor the situation.
Is that avatar your TSN... talking about keeping big fish.
 
Yeah good call...

Nah it's not my TSN but it is an awesome avatar though huh? Picked up a pic off google and added my touch, i'm not trying to plaguerise, just a nice looking avatar... I may get a TSN when I get a larger tank, but well see what others opinions are.
 
You can never be sure when mixing Knives, but it's been done before;)
 
you can mix them. They might get used to each other.

Good trip to France. Do I smell Rugby?
