Dominant Behavior causing orino to stop eating?

[vamptrev]

haha that's good that he ate but you might have something else to worry about soon. tems grow much faster than orinos and, if he's eating that much, he'll dwarf the orino even more in no time...Orinos have attitude but if the tem gets too big you might have some problems. when my orino was 6" he held his own against my 8-9" temensis, hopefully you'll have the same luck.

this is the info i was looking for

sry guys im pretty new to bass. i owned a tem for a long time but never had an orino.

im now thinking of putting the orino in the 450 gal w my rays and 18" blk aro, leaving the tem in the 250. will the aro and orino get along?

then i can add the tem to the 450 once the orino gets fat and comfy

my aro and orino get a long fine. the orino will mouth the aro but there's never any damage. the aro doesn't even budge....

sounds like a good plan, by then the orino will have established some kind of territory and since you'll be introducing a larger fish, it should work out.....don't blame me if it doesn't though!
