Herbivorious dithers?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I'll third Buenos Aires. Very entertaining tetras; my school gave my tank a lot of much-needed action. Great with cichlids. Don't mix them with passive fish because they WILL hog all the food, not allowing any passive slow fish to get a bite. They need to be with boisterous/active but peaceful fish. In other words, fish that will fight for their food but will otherwise ignore the tetras. I had them with EBAs, and they did great together.
 
I’ll second Buenos Aires - they’ll eat anything, but definitely have some herbivorous tendencies (as I wonder where all the plants in their tank went). They’re just as fast to go after meaty foods.

Doesn't sound like a good match. Kismet can be pretty timid and I don't think he'd fight for food. But then again he's been alone most of his life so really not sure how he is with others.
