just thinking ahead

[Zeester]

this is far in the future as the fish I have planned are still babies but...

will my 135 be able to house a breeding pair of Festae?

I have a 180 and a 240 also

the 240 I plan on doing a new world community tank
jag
midas
festae
etc etc

the 180 will most likely house my frontosa who are currently in the 240

advice is most welcome!

thanks guys!

a 135 can house a pair of festae until the males around 13-14"

 

[Zeester]

so basically the answer is no?

 

[HighBackRTG]

It's yes until they get to that size. Then it's no.

 

[Zeester]

guess I'll have to rethink things then

want to get them housed where they will live thier whole lives

its all a long way off but I like to plan ahead

Maybe. Your 240 might not be either depending on the fish though once they reach adult size

 

[Zeester]

on the topic of the 240...

how many adult do you think I can plan on for the community

I currently have a midas, jag, festae and mayan growing out
I want to look into getting some vieja soon as well

wow... hope thats not the case

I would really like to have a breeding pair of festae in the future but if my 240 is even questionable, I may have to rethink things

I have an amazing breeding group of kipili frontosa Im not willing to get rid of

I would post some photos but this isnt the right section for africans

I'll make a post in the african section of anyone is interested in looking at them
