Pike Characin Compatibility

[AU_Arowana-RG]

I'd like to know whether the following pike characins will be compatible with other fish:

Paraphago Rostratus-Striped Fin Eater
Phago Maculatus- African Pike Characin
Boulengerella Lateristriga- Striped Pike Characin
Boulengerella Maculata
Hepsetus Odoe

Paraphago Rostratus-Striped Fin Eater-wouldnt risk it(FIN-Eater)
Phago Maculatus- African Pike Characin-see above
Boulengerella Lateristriga- Striped Pike Characin- no problem wit fish too big to get eaten
Boulengerella Maculata-no problem wit fish too big to get eaten
Hepsetus Odoe- doesnt like other silvery fish, otherwise no problem

What silvery fish did you guys try keeping with your Odoes?

Are you stating a myth or do you have experience?

 

[channarox]

1 and 2 no...
as for the others,it really depends what fish.

In any case, what fish would be best to avoid with these characins? (Particularly Hepsetus).

 

[DB junkie]

A great deal of the Charicins have a bad rep for being aggressive. For the most part aggression can be avoided by simply giving them room.

No personal experience here but i do know a guy who kept an odeo with a few Tinfoil barbs and it killed all of them

From what i've heard Odoes are like alot of fish some are Very aggressive and others are very calm

You are right about the space thing More room = Less aggression

from my experience and what ive heard,majority of odoes are only aggressive to sliver fish.
some are all out killers,and then you get the few calm ones.
