Just got back from the LFS.....

And they had some very nice looking salvs and I want to go back and get at least one.

Do you think that a salv or a pair of salvs is gona work in my 155 gal with my O, JD and Bala shark. The salvs are about 2 1/2 to 3 inches....

Of course I'll do a little re arranging break up the territories and all

I think that should be fine.

 

[Kcoastsurfguy]

Thanks for the reply, do u think just 1 or a pair

You could probably get a pair. But, be cautious i've seen oscars eat good size fish.

 

[volcomstone]

Yea a pair would be good in that size tank. Good choice on the Salvinis!

Thanks, yea they were really nice looking fish, I picked up a pair and everything is fine thus far

I've heard mixed things, I've heard they can be nasty or they can be big babies. I think it really depends on the actual fish and his/her personality. So far mine have been just pretty chill and no problems from the other fish either

I have a sal in a 135 ca/sa community, smallest one in there. At first when it was heavily decorated, he would guard his little home and chase anything that came near, no matter the size. Now that I've taken 80% of the decor out, he's great.. For they're size, they can pull an attitude, but nothing serious to worry about.. As far as a pair, if you get a m/f, you might have problems for others if they breed down the line. M/m might have problems between the 2. I say if your going for another fish in a community, 1 is perfect.

Might beat on the bala
