They may or may not stay in the same tank for too long. It seems I really messed up the balance and behavior of my fish with the 2 latest additions. The tig has my tsn in fits now. After I turn the lights off the tsn now swim at all levels up high along the glass and the tig stays in his cave for the most part. Its weird to see a catfish swimming with the bass. I also added a 7 inch Temensis bass to go with the 3 similar sized kelberi I have in the tank. Unfortunately I neglected to ask what the temensis was eating until after I got home. I later learned that its still eating feeders. I decided to try the method described in the cichla forum to get it off live food but the kels always beat it to the feeders as I put them in and now they wont take pellets after one day of trying to work on the new guy. What a mess I made of my tank. I gotta get started on the big tank as soon as the weather warms up and I can clear out what will become my new office/fish room. Not sure what to do next but im starving these bass til they take pellets again and I may get another tank to move the temensis into to train it in solitary. Also learned my tsn are picky eaters. They love tilapia but wont touch tuna, flounder, or massivore pellets. Any suggestions?
