cupido?

[bbortko]

I have 2 cupidos in my 20g planted tank with a pair of angels, neons, lemon tetras, and 2 pairs of mollies. The mollies had babies and she they get big enough the babies will go in my 125. I am wondering if the cupidos can go as well. The 125 has 3 silver dollars, 1 Nic, 1 severum, 4 geo iporangensis, 2 swordtails, and 2 common plecos.

Do they hide much or are they very timid? I was always under the impression the the Biotodoma genus was rather skiddish in general. I don't think I would mix them with a nic or the iporangensis or they would get bullied. Maybe try it and keep a close eye out for trouble?

The cupidos hide a lot, especially when people go near the tank. The Nic is always picking fights with the severum and ebjd but doesn't pay much attention to the iporangensis. While the iporangensis have never had any altercations they do have a little bit of swagger to them, maybe I'll just move the babies. even though the tank is overstocked the fish appear to be thriving.
