Calvas Info Please Anything helps

[jmatthewhill]

Calvus are some of my all-time favorites. I would recommend them to anyone who has a good bit of fish experience. Some are quite shy and can use some dither fish to help them feel more safe and secure.

Can they be kept together?

I know a lot of people do. There is a chance for crossbreeding and fighting, but neither is too aggressive.

Ya, That's what i figured..

I'm really not looking to breed. Just want a decent community..

Down the road i might play around trying to breed them.

I breed this species. Takes a long time. Still have about 16 at 2.75 to 3 inches. About 2 years old. Also,50 +- at 2.5 inches. Too bad you're so far away.
