[ryeguy28]

[ryeguy28]

tetras will not work with your firemouth. especially exodons.

not exactly true. black skirt, bleeding heart and congo tetras would work as they are some of the larger tetras.

exodons are not a good idea with any other species though.

not true at all. exodons can be successfully kept with certain species. butnot cichlids.

apologies. everything ive read suggests they are too predatory to be kept with other species. thats why i shyed away from them a while back.

firemouths are small and peaceful enough for most of the larger teras, like buenos aires and mexican tetras

Exodons wont work, remember that tetras are shoal fish and need to be in a school. with a thirty gallon and a firemouth there is no way a school of at least 6 would fit
