redtail tankmates

[scott.kozza]

looking for good tankmates for my tigershovelnose and redtail cat. i am working on a peacock

A Pbass would be great! Just make sure to get one big enough that it wont be eaten!

 

[Pleco-nation]

Anything that is way to big to go into there mouths, when you think you got big enough go one step bigger they will swallow anything they can!!!!

IF you got a huge tank in the Works than pacus are good.

pbass are perfect!
just remember that redtails grow extremely fast ! so like stated earlier by big!

my RTC doesnt bother my bichir, but they r similar size.

Aro is a good addition since catfish are bottom dwellers usually...

 

[davo]

a gar perhaps?

Welcome to MFK!!!

Before talking about tankmates for these monsters, just what size tank are you intending to keep all these in?

I don't think an aro would be a good tankmate for a RTC:

There's a few redtails at the local zoo and they keep big aros and pacu with them.
