hey just purchased a baby mono hes about an inch and a half, eating blood worms and krill. i have him in my 55g, i am buying a new tank shortly, i was wondering how big of a tank would him and possible tank mates would need to be happy, would a 180, or a 210 be enough?
Couple Q's

- Start date
i wanted to by the two at the lfs, and the guy said they would kill eachother, but i wasn't sure, i never trust lfs anyways. i got him for 11, there a tread with a pic of him somewhere. as for tank mates, can they live with larger new world chiclids, jags, terrors, carpinte?
as for jags depends on the individual fish, i tried to keep a mono with a jag and didn't have any luck constant fighting and biting of eachother, biut i have seen others where it has worked for them. My mono and my oscar and my belly crawler pike all get along great tho.
i have them in a 55gallon atm, but looking to buy a 240 gallon tank, waiting for 1 on craigslist in my area.
As long as the peacock bass are the same size they won't kill each other. Get a couple more peacock bass, put them in an 8x3x2 when they are bigger an keep them with a silver aro and large silver dollars. That's what I'm going to do with mine when they're bigger.
yeah bro, dun waste ur time with other cichs get a shoal of cichla...there s nothing better! 240, though depending on dimension wont last long with a shoal... u could keep 5 cichla for max 2-3 years tho..give it a go mate!
