I recently lost my female Venezuelan pike, so I decided to get a new one. My lfs had a nice 4-5” atabapo 2, so I got it and it’s doing well. Subsequently they got some more so I bought 2 more. The latter two seem to get along and are togethe while the first, which is an inch larger, is alone.
My question is, can I keep a group of 3-4 of these together for th long term or will they eventually Square off and fight?
I could get a 4th but don’t want to have them all separated
The ultimate plan is 125 gallon with a few canisters, sponges and peat in the filter.
My other concern is that the local water is very hand and I don’t know how well the pest will correct that. I’m worried about hole in the head. My Venezuelan’s resolved after I got her and I didn’t have her in black water.
The pic is the first one. They’re all really shy.
Also, any tips to get them on pellets?
