Severum tankmates

[Loves severums]

Thanks for the information.(the parrot fish info was especially interesting)
I think I'll go with the giant danio's. How many should I go with in my 55 gal.?

5 giant danios.

I can't even be bothered to go into detail, use the forum search function, this has been covered a lot of times.

Bottom line according to a respected person in the trade (Heiko Bleheh) is Blood Parrots are nothing but retarded line bred Midas.

His statement suggested that the original specimens had good mouths, but the deformity has been line bred in.

I think its a obvious statement that the true Golden Severum (line bred version of Heros Efaciatus) cannot breed outside of the Heros genus, any experienced hobbyist can tell you that.

They will pair off with other fish, even lay eggs, but none will be viable.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but blood parrots ARE hybrids of Vieja Synspilum and the midas cichlid. And isnt Heiko Bleheh the one who thinks Flowerhorns are linebreed of a pure species(dont remember which one). I just want people to know the truth. If you want the link to what im talking about I will try and find it.

Also striped barbs go well with severum
