Electric blue acara?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very nice electric blue Acara. I have two that I am growing out and hoping to spawn. Towed Jumper...you don't find them to be aggressive to your Bolivians or Electric blue Rams?
 
I have mine in a 75 gal tank, with 2 Bolivian rams, 2 Electric Blue Rams and 1 regular Blue Acara. Water change every 2 days. One thing I've noticed about the EB Acaras are that they don't eat much, compared to the Rams.

The EB Acaras are not aggressive at all, I picked up 2 more the other day. I have 4 EB Acaras and none of them are aggressive towards each other or the rams. They're not spawning or anything, but I do believe that will change once they stat.
 
Most people say blue acaras are fairly peaceful, mine isn't. He killed many fish as a 3" baby and even harassed fish that were a foot long by ripping off scales.

I've had my pair for almost a year. I actually had the first pic up on the internet for them! My pair has never been very aggressive. They are about 5-6" now and have been breeding for several months. I keep them in a planted 55g with some upper-jaw bichirs.

Oh man you gotta show us a pic of that. I haven't seen many EBA that size. And what upper jaw bichirs are you keeping as well? I got my guy in a planted 75 with some misc. fish including my senegalensis, retropinnis, rope, and delhezi
