Forskalii tiger fish

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What fishes would be good tank mates for a 4" forskalii?

P.S it's currently in a 55gallon tank coz its too small for my main tank
 
best tank mates would be peaceful big fishes that won't eat your forskahlii. My forskahlii is very aggressive and nearly killed my goliath, it killed my vittatus and they were all same size, goliath being the biggest.
I got mine 2 months ago, it has grown from 3" to 5" so i would say given proper care and food (i give him food sticks, live fish once every 2 weeks) it will grow around 1" per month.
It also needs strong water current and aeration. Good luck!
 
I'm thinking of keeping a goliath,vittatus,forskalii and an armatus inside a 5x2x2 tank would it be a good idea or bad?

P.S i would probably buy those fishes that are at the same size as my forskalii
 
this is such a bad idea that the shear fact you need to ask such a question , even after the reply you got , tells me you are not ready for any tiger . I would leave well alone and save yourself loads of cash and heartache
 
based on my experience yea. but u never know fish got different personalities.
if i were u i would stay away from forskahlii. IMO goliath and vittatus show better coloring anyway.
i know for sure goliath is peaceful
 
Well the problem is i already have it and im plannin to put it into my 150 gallon with another bichir and possible another armatus or goliath would you recommend that i put it in alone or with those two fishes?
