New NGT's for the datnoid loach tank

[Vancouver_98683]

Picked up a 6" & 5" ngt within the past month. Everything going well and each has established there territory for each side. They're currently housed with 37 clowns & 15 other loaches, 7 Indo dats, and silver aro in a 155 bowfront. Hoping the inhabitants will curb both NGT's aggression. Cross my finger.... But I think may work long term, if not then I can say I tried it. Here are some amateur photos taken from my phone.

Just as a video reference. The 2 NGT will be in here minus all the cichlids. The CA's have been moved to my 195. If your bored, that vid is my signature. Thanks.

Anyone have a success story with 2 NGT still in the same tank together after many years or months?

I'm currently having no issues, asides from the occasional chase away. One NGT has the left side, other the right. No issues with the many sized loaches, Just an occasional nudge to say " this is my space".

Probably wont work long term...
Once they get to 8-9 inc plus , try will likely do real damage to one another.

Worth a try though, you have 7 Indos to spread aggression...

I grew 2 up from 2 inch to 8 inch , and one used to get hammered.
And I had 10 Indos also. All crammed into a UK 125 g..

Call me crazy!!! But thinking about getting 1-2 more just for fun. If there are issues, they will either go to my other tanks or rehomed. Indos are getting a bit boring for me even when big.
