Finally set up a proper CA tank

[peathenster]

Well, sort of

A wild pair of pearsei

A male argentea (working on getting a female...)

6 of these as dithers....left them in because they are supposed to be able to tolerate alkaline water. Will remove them once the CAs feel at home.

Looks quite proper indeed. Impressive.

 

[frazzlerock5]

that looks sweet!

 

[peathenster]

Thanks guys!

Thinking about added one very red and large CA at some point. Something that won't kill off my fish (e.g. festae) and won't get killed. Any ideas?

Red snook comes to mind but am hoping for something "redder".

Hi Peter... Looks good.. I really like the pearsei and of course the "dithers". Good luck with the tank... Sue

 

[peathenster]

Thanks Sue I'm glad they are getting along (so far)....

labiatus if you are lucky enough to find one that is not to aggro.

 

[gnuisance]

female festae is pretty red

Yeah I agree...both of them are probably too aggressive

 

[HiImSean]

i dont think either pair would get pushed around by a female festae
