How many Sevs can i keep?

[Shorty81]

I currently have 3 in my 4ftx2ftx2ft, i noticed anoher thread were people said you can put 12 in a 6x2x2....i just want 1 more (a Rotkeil) on top of what i have.

Again, as long as your not bothered about breeding them, then your fine. I kept about 15 differant sevs in a 100 gallon for over a year (as the fish house was built) and never had a split fin (never had a spawn either mind)

In larger groups, they shoal exactly the same as discus and angels. Just keep an eye out for pairs forming and elevated aggression.

No not fussed, i have what i think is 3 Males

1 gold, 1 Red Spotted and 1 green and wouldn't mind keeping a Rotkeil, when i find one here in the UK

They have lots of large gorgeous rotkeils at Maidenhead Aquatics in St Albans at £49 each, apparently wild caught. They call them red headed severums but they are the same thing.
