Opinions; Rainbow or Golf wolf in my 160 SA community

[mynheers_a_pint]

ok small update. I am ready to order but i want to clarify whether multiple Reds would be ok in a 160g with the above or whether i should stick to a group of Golds. Either are fine, but i'm thinking that from the size point of view, a red would be marginally safer.

Cheers.

reds are much mroe aggressive toward each other than golds.
but it could work.
really up to you IMO.

GL ive had mixed results with red wolf comms.
some ending with just one red wolf left out of 4-6.
and some did very well.
it just depends on the individual fish cause it takes one bad @ss to ruin it all....
golds ive found comm much easier.

I am fairly certain golds are the right choice but i am concerned about them getting to 14"+ whilst the Geo's could max out at just 10". Not a massive difference but I don't want to needlessly risk them. I will conceed that the current tank will be upgraded when i can so it could work esp. if i keep the numbers down.

Less is more IMHO.

the wolves probably wont hurt anything more than 6 inches even at full size...which is 16-18 inches.
