Recently got a black aro here in toronto (very hard to come by), and decided to try and see if it would mix nicely with my red. Been a few days now and there is no aggression between the two! My flagtail has been the one who gets bullied.
When I had the black alone, it was a very picky eater and didn't eat much at all. Now that it sees the red munching on superworms and shrimp, it simply follows the leader and starts eating as well. I'm thinking the black likes the company of another aro whereas the red doesn't mind too much at all.
If things continue to be peaceful in the next coming weeks/months, I'm gonna splurge on a new setup.
My red has gained in girth a LOT, if some of you recall my previous thread when I first got it. Red colour has become more intense in the fins and it's wearing deep red lipstick. Cheeks are growing more orangy/red everyday. Scales developing nice shine as well.
I'll update the status in the coming weeks.
Sorry for the crappy pics...they were from the cell phone.

Awesome shape on that red!
