Yeah it's a fairly general term. Since I was searching for sabertooth characin. I also found vampire characin so I just wanted to double check with people that have experience and are knowledgeable of this particular specis.
Yeah,tats are nice.Get it some company if there were others available.

Man I wish I could. The person that I got them
from said he had X amount and that they where wild caught so it's kinda of hit and miss when he gets them. I would have bought a few it didn't cost much of anything.

Would you be able to name some good tank mates for a 7-8 inch tat?

Also after reading the first sticky after finding out what kind of fish I had the discription was dead on. As far as behaviour my fish swims straight though not at an angle.

Anyway any tankmates recomendations would be great. Thanks!!
 
They do well with just about any fish that will not bother them,won't compete with them for food,and of course,that can't fit in the tat's mouth.I kept a trio of them with an Armatus along with some bottom dwelling catfish.Peaceful cichlids should do nicely.
 
Nice man!! Yours has wayyyy more gold color to it. Atleast that's what it looks like from my phone. What are you using for current. I have just one powerhead for now. Not very strong. I have to wait for my day off to hit the lfs and redeem some credit. And pick up a couple more.

Oh, He sadly died a month after I bought him, He had a very bad case a velvet and he was completely covered in white dots. But anyway for current I was just about to go buy a powerful Koralia Power head before he died. I've heard they are very happy if they have a power head of about 500 GPH. And thanks for the comment on his gold color I think it was just the kind of sand and lighting that made him color up like that but I'm not completely sure.
