rixy,
what tankmates do u have with yours?

 

[rixy]

ive got
11 inch odoe
10 inch senegal
8 inch ornate
8 inch delhezi
4 inch wolf fish(lfs on standby incase any problems )

odoes dont always strike their food.mine quite often has a look around the bottom of the tank and swoops down to pick up prawns/lancefish etc.

be very careful if you add any fish that look similar as odoes can take an instant dislike to fish that look similar such as apollo sharks,gars,silver sharks etc.be careful with certain cichlids as well.green terrors/red devils etc etc as these can bully and attack the odoe.all of the info ive posted is from my experiences and not read from books.all fish are different and what can suit one tank will fail in another.im not afraid to try different things but have a spare tank or a friendly local fish shop on stand by

thanks mark.
