Quick Question on Red Devil X Blood Parrot

[Konstantine]

Would a 20 gallon long tank be fine. Red Devil is like 5 inches. Shows signs of interest in the parrot.

With extremely clean water, water changes and a variety of healthy foods, could this be done. Only reason why is because i've seen it at my lfs. How much more difficult would it be because the tank is smaller?

Absolutley not the tank is way too small especially to breed. I wouldn't try it in anything smaller than a 55gallon.

Agreed

In a tank that small the Red Devil could easily kill the parrot. I have a breeding pair of Midas that I had to put in my 125 because the male was always beating up on the female when they were in the 75 gallon.
