So most things I have read and people I have talked to say that ATF are overall not too aggressive fish. Of course there is always individual variations and lots of stories of lost tank mates on this forum. I have my 4.5 inch taft in a 75 with some 6-7 inch thin bar silver dollars. I want to move the sds out and move in my four 4 inch or so clouded archers ((toxotes blythii)(for those not familiar with them they are true fw fish). The archers are much more substantial then the tiger fish and would like to move them out of my 50g. I have only had my taft for two weeks now and so far seems mellow but he is also by far the smallest thing in the tank. think this would be risky? I am not worried about the archers picking on him. They love to fight amongst each other and thats about it.
 
nifty combo. Don't know the outcome. Are the archers aggresive?
 
the archers bicker amongst themselves. They can really beat on each other but don't bother anyone else. My 50g has the 4 archers I growing out and four 4 inch uarus. I want to move all eight of them into the 75g with the taft. the more i think about it I don't think the archers will be an issue. I am more interested in peoples thoughts of the uaru and tatf together.
