:headbang2

:nilly:

I sat there staring at join date wondering if it could be??? I only remember from the "other" site.....

This is crazy. :)

We need to be enlightened how to make a group work! I'm ready for stories/enlightenment!!!!
 
are there any other characins that get past 5-6" i just want some variety of dithers that will spread aggression. I've been reading that multiple atf together at a juvenile size tend to fight a lot. I just want them to make it past the aggressive stage. I dont mind if they end up killing the dithers
 
SD's and Uaru are working for me. To be exact 6 redhook silver dollars,3 wide bar silver dollars , one thin bar silver dollar,2 uaru and a surviving odessa barb. They ate the rest of the odessa barbs and ate 2 small clown loaches. The TATF's are measuring about 4". Tried putting in a 6" RTG and he ate one of my TATF's. Expensive lesson learned!
 
you can try red hooks, wide bar silver dollars ,thin bar silver dollars. I have seen wide bar silver dollars get to be 10 inches they look great in groups 6 to 8 they are not cheap 4 inch ones will run you $40 bucks
 
Be careful with SDs guys. Larger ones have teeth and can be nippy, I've seen them tear up smaller fish. I, personally, would be hesitant to mix them with my tigers unless my tigers are a good bit larger.
