Jurupari

Wrong section but the jurupari are also known as earth eaters because they sift through the bottom for food.You could get more as I have seen them in groups or probably any S.A.cichlid that is not aggressive because most earth eaters are peaceful.
Almost any non-aggressive fish will work. Those fish arent aggressive and they get very long "trailers" on theyre dorsal and anal fins so no "fin nippers". Some pet stores will sell a fish deemed "community" and say its not aggressive but some of these "community" fish are fin nippers and are semi-aggressive, eg.,loaches, red tail sharks, dwarf gourami.etc.
Corydoras, silver dollars(when larger), Danios, Angelfish.

yeah i see them at like my LFS but they tell me they are aggressive and will fight
so the smaller species like saxatilis family pikes, salvinni, firemouth, chocolate, or EBJD will still work right??

yeah i had a convict and they were fighting and locking lips thats when i took the convict out cause the jurupari but they were the same size and they were only in a 55 gallon but i would like to get the Pike cause they look cool. Also the EBJD thats what im leaning too since they both look very cool together but any lighter colored guys like red orange and yellow i could throw in there if you know of anything?
sounds like you get a mean one just dont put anything small in there with him he will kill it because mine killed a lil EBJD and a Festae i never never wanted to kill that fish after it killed my Festae oh i was so mad wait im still mad about that lol ..try Salvini's or Firemouth'sfloridagar;4447856;4447856 said:
