motoro with retic?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I only have the one cichlid with her, she leaves him alone, but she could easily kill him if she wanted. I guess she just decided one day she wanted to take out the marbled pim but he was to much to handle and she hasn't tried since.
 
id really love a trio of motoros but really dont have the room for three, and having two sounds dodgy esp. as the males are boistrous when it comes to courtship. ahwell.
 
Planning on another female if my leopoldi pup falls through.;)
 
Secret, hush hush. I am the third on the list so if it has three pups I'm set, if not I will cry. If it has more, I probably can't afford it.

fair enough, just wondered if it was someone on here breeding. whats the price quote? i'd really like one but im just another on the i want list. supposed to be just as easy as motoros too
 
They aren't I member I dont think. Price is $300 to $500 but he is not sure yet. I will just be happy to have one.
 
They should be fine, the only time you would probably have issues is with an overly aggressive male that doesn't get his way. Two of the same sex should be fine with no problems. If you want a male and female just make sure you get a bigger female, so he can't overpower her.

I have a pair and they are fine. He has just started to be a bit nippy but the only damage done is a scrape here and there and it is gone the next day. I say go for it if you want some. Rays are the best IMO.
 
How big do the retics get? I have tried to google them but im not getting the stats I was hoping to find. What size of tank would you need to keep 3 motoros with the possibility of trying to breed them. Im going to build a custom tank for them.
