might raise a jardini in there till hes big enough to survive in the indoor pond with the snapping turtle but idk about that so lets go with with the top 3 only shall we do you think thats to crowded
 
Won't be overcrowded for long...those rainbows will make nice snacks for the flowerhorn and jardini.
yeah it is a risk but if i notice them getting picked off ill take them back to the lfs but a the flower horns gonna be small when i get him thats the only way i can afford to get one lol. well u never no rainbows are pretty fast so he may give up after a day or 2 if he cant catch them and with that many they stand a better chance though i plan to add the flower horn about a month after the last of the rainbows are added. plus with all the amazon swords as sight barriers i did say that i have 15 pots of those on hold as well didnt i ? i dont remember lol

ohh and ignore the jardini hes not so much a part of the tank as the other 3 my dad just likes them so im thinking about growing one out for his indoor pond as a early congrats u no what your Christmas present this year is but honestly i probably wont
 
You would be surprised as to how quick flowerhorns can catch those rainbows. Flowerhorns are very aggressive and will probably finish off/injure its tank mates in less than a week....
