Hey guys, I know I’m new to African tiger fish as I just got my first one but I had one of my 125 tanks crack on me this week and I had to move a lot of my fish for my 125 to a couple of my other tanks. And when I mean crack, I mean a giant split from the top of the tank to the bottom corner. And in there along with a couple other fish, were my two Tarpon, my Atlantic tarpon that I was growing out and my indo Pacific Tarpon. The end of pacific is around 5 inches in the Atlantic is around 6 inches long. Right now they’re in a 55 gallon tank that they were in when I first got them and it’s not wide enough for them and it’s heavily planted so they are bumping into the walls when spooked because they don’t have that much with to go back into. Now eventually I’m going to get another 125 and put them back in there but do you think it would be safe to put them with my 4 inch African tiger fish in his 60 gallon or do you think they’ll be fine in the 55 until I can get them in another 125? It’s not like they’re not eating. They’re in fact eating very well. It’s just that I’ve noticed they’re losing a few scales here and there I’m assuming it’s due to bumping into stuff. Thank you for any help and or support.
