Firemouth Keepers

[Bethany]

What do you keep with your firemouths? [dithers, other fish, etc.]

 

[killerfish420]

I have had a beautiful firemouth with 2 lobi's, 2 convicts and a pleco. The lobi's seem to pick on a little, but nothing serious.

look at my sig. they all get along fine. the 2 FM's squabble now and again but generally stick together in the same spot.
