Pleuro Compatibility

I realize that they school together but can they be housed together if their sizes vary?

Hmmm...I've never seen different sized pleuros together. I did read on google that some one had two about 7-8" in length with a 2" severum and the severum runs the tank!

Wow! 2" severum,,, running the tank?!! :WTF:

There are pics on google. I will try and find them tonight and post. Pretty crazy stuff.

The severum has perfect fins (so do the channa) but the severum doesnt let them get near his log!

Tropheus, is it more of an issue of aggression between different sizes or, if the size difference is great, cannabalisim?
