Hey just wanted to know if anyone has tips for a new exodon owner. I have 8 right now in a 125 with a synodontis eruptus and some nerite snails. Looking to add more to the school soon.
 
Number 1 piece of advice is to get more! Just too psychotic!
And keep an eye on them with the cat, they usually are safe but no guarantees.
Also make sure to have lots of hiding places.
 
Any fish that has scales is off the table as a bucktooth tetra tankmate. That's usually a good rule of thumb should you at any point want more fish.

Yeah they love their scales. I don't plan on putting anything else in there except more exodons. Might do Cory cats at so e point if the synodontis I have now can't keep up with all the leftover food as the exodons are pretty messy eaters. He usually comes out at night and clears the bottoms of any leftover scraps.
