Vieja Zonatum & ?

[BobB]

Is there anything I could put in with a Zonatum in a 90G tank?

 

[ewok]

cichlid wise i'm gonna say no... probably a large pleco that can take some hits at the most.
why not just rear a nice show quality fish that's free of scrapes and nicks.

I think a 75 gallon is the minimum for a single zonatum so I'm gonna say no other cichlids but maybe a big catfish or a school of silver dollars.

You can try some type of bottom dweller. Maybe some smaller archocentrus, or thorithcys type fish that the zonatum might not fell threatened by so might not kill if they have hide spots.

Zonatum REAL glass banger!!! Bstuver has a 16 to18" inch one!!!

Yeah I have seen some large zonatum and have heard they are VERY mean. They are beautiful fish though. But in a 90 I wouldn't try any other cichlids. Possibly a pleco or some bigger loaches.

maybe a male convict.

i would do a plec or something along those lines!

my 13" female will not tolerate anything, not even plece, constant harassment
