Made an unexpected purchase the other day and need to temporarily create some tank space. Think putting a 6 inch Pom Pom knife in a 125g with 10 inch bgk is risky for the ghost?

I don't know much about BGKs but it could possibly present a danger to the afer....and we can't have that.
 
The size difference gives me cause for concern but you know your fish.On the other hand afers can do a number on a fish at night after the lights go off.
 
put the pom pom in. There is a pretty big size difference. Think the bgk will be fine, now I just need to keep an eye on the other stock. Lets see how the first night goes
 
Good luck and keep us posted.My afer used to live with a few grow out kelberi and he never bothered them throughout the night but a short time after I moved the Kels I put a thinbar dat in there and the next morning the poor thing was alive but torn to shreds.

going to check soon hope everyone will be accounted for.
 
still going well. Tomorrow I am going to move my electric cats to the pom poms old tank. Obviously if something goes wrong with this combo it will start tomorrow night.
