a friend asked me to help him to grow out a 4"-6" silver, i was thinking about keeping it in a 180gal with 2 larger 15"-18"silvers...im not 100% positive it would work but..what do u guys think?
 
the bigger ones would be territorial. you might consider changing plans
 
Hi,dont try it,the difference in size between the two is too much for the smaller ones to defend themselves against attacks.
 
Common sense should apply. I'm sure there will be someone who jumps on here and states that they were successful and you could go ahead and do it.
 
i dont think it would work but worked with me haha i had 17" silver with 5-6" jardini nothing happen but i sold it needed space
 
Nada......although Bderick67 brought up a good point....I have house a 5"-6" Silver in with my 18" Jardini in the past and it grew to about 10" before committing suicide. Never did the Jardini try to eat it, kill it, or do whatever to it. BUT I am advising you not to do it. :D
