Damn Salvini!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The other day I was sitting at my computer MFKing, and I hear a noise behind me. I have a 20 with a small salvini, a small poly, and a modesta loach. I hear this clicking noise, going crazy. I turn around and my salvini and loach are squared off, the salvini is flaring and the loach is in an aggressive stance clicking . It was the most hilarious thing I have seen in a tank. Apparently they both wanted to hide under the same piece of driftwood.

My con knows he has no cave. The sal owns everything in the tank and he sure lets others know. He just doesn't square off he tries to kill lol.
 
i have a 2inch sal i think male and he gets chased and owned by my redtailed black shark and my smaller male sajica. but he does like fighting he does pick fights with my bigger fish and gets pushed back. the funny thing is my hrp(pair but not spawned) are the ruler of the tank its is a 35g and i has 2-3.5 Thorichthys ellioti, 4inch female jd, pair of rainbow cichlids and the sal does have scraps time to time, i no the tank is small but its i grow out/stand by tank i have just picked up a 120 and will set up laiter tonight

My 125 is 72x18x22 inches. I am allowed to get more tanks in my house now lol. I told my mom Petco is having a sale and I am getting more tanks shes like ok. I was like wait what? She wants something from me in return? turns out she doesn't care anymore since she knows I am addicted and she likes the idea of me taking care of animals. I take care of all the animals in the house and my dads house as well. I got lots to do lol, but I love my animals.
