Right

i had 5 x Asian aros 2 x chili red and 3 x blue base xbacks

1 x chili red and 1 x xback had taken over the whole 7 foot tank

they were swimming around 6 foot of the tank not letting the other 3 aros leave the 1 foot of tank taking it in turns to keep them pinned in a corner

it was unfair on the 3 aros

so i sold on the 3 that were getting beat up yesterday

i know its still early days but its been 24 hours now and the 2 aros have not been fighting

they are not swimming side by side yet like other aro pairs i have seen but they are swimming together with the red at the top of the tank and the xback in the middle

the group of aros used to fight like crazy the more lights you put on
so yesterday i was doing some tests and put all the lights on the tank and no fights with the 2

i know its still early but if they are still fine after a week its could be good

i have been very luck with the 2 aros as they were the best 2 of the group and even better i get to keep 1 x xback and 1 x red which is great as i love both types of aro

i dont even mind if they dont breed its just the fact that i can keep a pair in one tank im happy about :D

not sure :confused:

the new rules are a bit confusing

i got about 5 PMs telling me some of my threads have been moved so who knows
 
well if it gets moved it gets moved.... how about those pictures buddy :)
 
I remember a while back you were thinking of selling the other 3 aros so this 2 could pair up. It was a good deal too. You should have bought another tank for them if the 2 don't work out, but then again, you can buy them with no problem. Congrats.
 
to tell the truth the fighting was driving me mad

so if the pair doesnt work i will sell the xback and just keep the red
