Cubans?!

[Breid22]

He's going in there with a dovii so that's was part of the thought behind the thread seeing if they would be ok

How large is the tank? That is more of a risk having a Cuban with a Dovii, even if the Cuban is at the same agression level of a midas, where I have seen a male midas take on a dovii and the midas still lost badly. The owner had a 600 gallon tank as well.

I have kept them in the past. Pretty typical Central American attitude on these fish. My Nandopsis tetracanthus coexisted with a mixed group of Herichthys tamasopoensis and H.bartoni without too much of an issue for several years. They were more concerned with attacking and killing each other than going after other fish.

I would rate them as being fairly aggressive fish overall.

 

[Breid22]

Oh wow.. The plans were for them to be in a 300

 

[white15]

If they are put in at a young age together with lots of hiding spots, I think you will be fine. What other fish are going in the 300?

 

[Breid22]

A bocourti, altifron and a godmanni

Electriblue what were the tankmates ?

@4" he killed afull grown firemouth and a 6.5" gt . and then chased the rest of my stocking(in my Sig) relentlessly

 

[burzumaske20]

I'm a bit surprised that the cuban was able to take out a gt.

 

[Breid22]

I've haven't seen a aggressive GT yet

 

[Regalblue]

My male at 5" ruled over a 6.5" Freddy.
The Cuban didn't start anything, but would not back down& usually chased The Freddy away.
This was in a 120gal (4/2/2)
With 6 Freddies total, a female Cuban& 5" L-191
