hey guys im an armatus newbie so i need some compatibily info, ive checked the stickies but i need to know more.

how will a 2-3in armatus be with an azul thats the same size? should i always have the pbass be bigger then the armatus? and generally when do they get aggressive?

and yea please help me out here i dnt want any fatalites.
 
At that size you will find your Zullie has a faster growth rate than the Armatus. Armatus will end up as food for your Zullie. Grow them out seperately. I wouldn't put them together until both are around the 6"-8" range. Armatus can hold its own at that point.
 
^^agreed^^

some armatus grow like weeds from day one, some take a few months to take off. IME
 
allright, if thats the case ill gorw him out in a 20 or so and then pop them in the life tank at 6-8? awsome thanks a mil guys.
