Need a little info on Argentea, Regani, Maculicauda (black belt)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My wc argentea was at the bottom of the pecking order until he got to about 10 inches then he just became a @$$#hole,beat down fish much larger than himself,as far a regani i have four that are 9"+ and one is very out going and the other three are shy so ist hard to say each fish has its own personality.
So in my experience with wc vieja tank size doesnt matter that much(they are use to large territories in the wild) some will just be aggressive and some will not,just give as much room as possible and keep an eye on them.
 
it seems from what i read here,vieja have a wide range of aggression.my BB male had to be re-homed before he even hit 6 inches,i have never keep the other vieja.i do have syns/melanurus now growing out,another type that would look good in that set-up
