Hello! I just wanted to know if a TSN thats about 9 inches long live in the same tank as a RTC thats about 18 inches long? The reason for me asking is I notice my RTC is getting a little aggressive, like nipping at the TSN if he comes towards his size of the tank. Is this normal or should I be concerned. Thanks

I would think any fish half the size of the RTC would be a possible meal. Can you move the TSN until it catches up?
any fish up to the same size as a red tail is in danger they are monsters :headbang2

:ROFL: Sorry but this is funny...Short answer... be Concerned... VERY CONCERNED!
 
Did he eat it while you posted this? Suprised it laster more than a couple of seconds unless you are feeding that rtc like no tomorrow. I keep a 19" rtc with a 21", and 22" tsn, and it looks risky to me. lol, I know he could eat them, but hopefully never will. They are no where near as thick as him. He's like a football with fins and they are like eels with wiskers.

:ROFL: I think I peed alittle when I read this :ROFL: SOOOOO TRUE!!!

I've actually been looking at how Buster looks at Tigger lately and am getting concerned since Tigger is only 2" bigger than Buster... But I'm keeping both very well fed so I don't think that he could get Tigger down past head since his belly is always so full
