My Unlikely Trio

[Roger Mcfish]

I’d be sulking too if I was stuck in a glass box with a chick that doesn’t want to get down. Maybe they had one of those unholy polyamorous relationships going on, Lol.

Scarred for life!

Have you tried dither fish? Something smaller than the multifasciatus but still able to take as good as it gives? I’ve had Cryptoheros cutteri and Panamius panamensis in with my a couple large centrals. The cutteri are kind of a dicks and they give way more than they receive from the lyonsi in one tank and the melanura group in the other. I don’t think the world needs more than but the gold standard for dependable dithers are Amatitlania nigrofasciata.

Problem is finding sizeable cons to keep up with the size of the 7 inch male parachromis. Right now I have 2 thorichthys aureus with them to try and thinking about getting more or getting 3-4 inch firemouths. I know they aren't as tough as the cons but maybe a group of firemouths can work, not sure. The male parachromis has t snapped yet, but all it takes is a blink of of an eye and it's still a parachromis lol
