What could go wrong?

[smokeythebair]

Growing out a bunch of fish in my 125g all 2.5". 3 red terror, 2 GT, Oscar, convict, Texas, jd. How long should they be good for together? 4" ish? 9 fish total

? Also will this restrict some of them to their full potential? Should I separate some in my other tank

 

[Yoda1]

What could go wrong? Everything!

I would separate

 

[smokeythebair]

I just meant the short time I'm growing them out together. They aren't all being housed together for life.

 

[convict360]

I think they'd be OK for a while, the red terror is the dangerous variable in that mix, primarily

 

[ehh]

I think you'll be ok for a while. You don't have the fastest growing bunch there.

 

[smokeythebair]

Ya the GT's are number one in the tank and the Texas a close second. They are all so small. No fin nipping which is my main concern. I was just hoping to grow them together until 4"-5. Not sure what ones I'm keeping in this tank.

 

[smokeythebair]

To my knowledge/guess the fastest grower to the slowest would be Oscar,Texas,jd,convict,rt, and gt the slowest.

 

[ehh]

The convicts growth is about to really really slow down lol.

The convicts growth is about to really really slow down lol.

That's what I'm kinda worried about some of them not thriving as much because of spot on the ladder. I love them all but the Rt's and GT's I'm really excited about. Maybe I will divide some now. I'm just not sure on my final stock yet so I want to grow them up together.
