[AquataHolic420]

well one of the neons got murdered by the trimac now i only have 2 neons left and they are outnumbered by my 3 cichlids so idont think they will last,,, should i bring back the dead fish?? anywayze i wanted to get the silver dollars but they were $4.69 each i was like damn ima get them next time prolly pick up 3 of em

NO dont bring it back.. it was a bad idea. so you cant return the fish.. you need NON BITE SIZE DITHERS! live n learn

hate to say i told ya so

yeah i knew those neons were going to get eat up. what about some buenos aires tetras or an exodon or two?

 

[saltydog_1]

go for the giant danios they are too big to be eaten right away and later on when they are bite size they are just fast silver dollars are also excellent if you have the room

 

[Peanut_Power]

geez...you tried to use neons for dithers? I'm missin your logic behind this.

 

[gomezladdams]

the giant danios was the best suggestion

 

[ammerman19]

what do you need the dithers for? Target practice or are the fish hiding constantly and you want to teach them it's okay to come out?

 

[OdiE-ThE-Fahaka]

just to fight/chase the dithers instead of eachother cuz the cons have paired up

 

[ammerman19]

why don't you get rid of some fish....or stop buying new fish.......Take your cons back to the LFS and see if they will take them Or get a bigger tank

These are my dither/targets and they're the best in the trade. It's a pair of Filament Barbs. I used to have 4 and regret selling 2 because they're hard to find but I got $100 for the other pair and thought it was a good deal at the time. (hard lesson learned) They're very active swimmers like tinfoil barbs but can swim faster when needed and only grow 6" max. They're in my 156 gallon tank with a 12" jag and a red terror. I've had them awhile...they used to be in with a 11" red devil and 7" barred midas and never got a scratch on them. I would highly reccommend anyone buy this fish if you can get your hands on it. Great fish to break up agrresion. They Rock!!
