Goes to show you never know.....I accidentally grabbed a Brycon Dentes a few months ago for my 180G ........told it was a red tailed Cuda. From the start it hounded my Pink tailed Chalceus and as it grew began to do damage. Tail frayed....several huge scales missing. My only other tank is my 120 dominated by a female 12" Lenticulata with 3 large Barred SD and a huge Syndont cat. The Brycon is a skinny 7-8" and the Lent is a very robust 12". In the past the Lent has chased all torpedo shaped fish till death. The SD have done OK but are somewhat cowered by the Lent. '
I moved the Brycon in two weeks ago and all is great. All the fish in my 180 are happy to have it gone.....i added some cool rohani barbs and the tank is so much more active now. The 120 gallon is better than ever. The Brycon brought the Pike and SD out into the open more often and the nervous constant movements of the Brycon have calmed down despite being in the 4" tank. Go figure.
