NGT TANKMATES ?'s

[Chino745]

Hi
I just bought 3-5" ngts dats and i have them in a 210gal with 5-5" mono pbass, 1-7" tem pbass, 1-6" Crencichla atabapo and a couple other fish. I ordered a couple of armatus too. Would it be safe to keep them all together?

The tank is full of malaysian driftwood too.

the NGT will be safe. ohh and get a top water fish like a gar or a aro.

Ok thanks, I just wasnt sure about throwing those armatus in with them.

more than 1 NGT will fight to the death

1 ngt with all your fish will be cool. But 3 ngt ..... Not such a good idea.

I know a few people who tried multiple ngt in tank(incl. Me) and results were not good. They fight like mad.

Some will say it has been done, but not many. Take Sinister J... He had several ngt in same tank, but then again he has TONS of datnoid in each tank to spread aggression.

I'm almost certain 2 or more ngt bigger than say 8 inch... WILL fight till one is badly wounded...
Come to think, I haven't seen any threads re: multiple qty. large ngt (>8 inch) in the same tank.

1 ngt per tank....tried more, had to seperate em.

I think it should be fine as long as there is only one NGT and I agree get a top waterfish like a arror or gar

Watch those bass they grow fast, but I think you might be ok.
