Picked up 8 etroplus canarensis, absolutely stunning fish. In a
tank with a 20"+ black aro, 18" congicus, 15" lap, 2x12" weeksi, 2x12" delhezi, a 28" tyre track eel, big bocourti and flagtail and these little guys more than hold their own.

kept small fish with the existing inhabitants before with no problems and all the exisiting fish ive had for more than 2years so I know their temperament well and I'm sure they will be fine. But it certainly is risky.

Apologies for the bad pics :)

Cheers for comments, for those not seen
them before they are a rare indian cichlid that
get to about 5" and are a shoaling fish which
makes them pretty unique.

I know oddball kept them, not sure if he still
does but I'd love to see an update if he still
has them. Wanted to try some for awhile but
never been able to get them at a size big enough
to risk.
