Thinking of getting a red tiger motaguense...

I have a male 10 in mota in a 75 right now.I think this fish is great,but you wont really be able to put anything with him due to temperment issues very territorial.

In a 75 there isn't much else you could keep with a male RTM (barring a pleco of some sort).

I agree

Here's couple pics of ones i got from Rapps bout mth ago

I got the same batch from rapps..MALE AND FEMALE.. your festae's have a HUGE size advantage on the moto's??? any aggression??

Yeah, there's no way in hell I'd mix my smaller RTMs (just spawned and have 400 free swimmers!) with my male festae (~9"). With the sheer aggressiveness of the female since she's laid eggs, I'm not sure who would get ripped up the most!

No problems so far.Sure I will have to move Motos when larger though

Sorry to be abit off topic but it may have some benefit to you,
does anyone know what size motas can be sexed? jeff has 3-3.5" are they too small?

 

[DarthV]

Should be pretty easy for him to sex them at that size.
