Lei and freinds

[señor_pescados_felices]

here is my 4.5" lei aro Em and I just got this morning (thanks Kory and UTA).
No problems with my 9" silver being agro toward it ,actually its the one nipping my silver but its got no game so I'm not worried.

My oscar of course thought it was food at first but that seems to have stopped luckily.

it wants to eat crickets but I need smaller ones.

and last of all yes thats a 75 gallon but I just put another $400 on my 220 this afternoon.

Congrats! You got some rough customers in there, Senor!!! I would not risk it..the Lei is very small....

yeah Ive got my eye on them,but theyve all been together since 1" and are very "tankmate tolerant" as of yet,although with a few of them that could turn at any moment once they mature,we will see!

I don't worry in a couple of months.. I 'd worry now, I'd worry tonight.. if they're going to hurt the lei it is while it is adapting...and it won't survive an oscar attack or being hit by that comprecisseps, which, we all know, is a mean mother...

the lei is too small..

excuse me if I am being a pain in the bottom....

thank you for your concerns but these guys are all really laid back.We put the aro in the tank and they checked it out and it was scared and when it ran the oscar chased but the oscar doesnt chase it unless it spooks.

The comp is vary laid back and we've had him from a fry (actually in a way MFK has watched him grow up via photo's that senor has posted)

this all could change later but for right now,for tonight,the lei is doing fine.It ate a small cricket,some krill,and some market shrimp peices.

As a last testament that those fish are all very laid back, did you happen to see that platy cruising around in the tank like she owns it?thats because she pretty much does,and none of those fish have ever eaten a single feeder in their life.
