this is a video of my 75 gal and 46 gal. in the 75 gal. i have added since the video was shot, 5 Geophagus steindachneri red humps. i kind of got an itch and went and bought a bunch of fish and stuck em together,lol. you can look at the other videos of mine to see how the tank has come to be over the past few months. i will be moving this summer so i will have the room for a monster tank and be able to keep all these guys together. thanks for any comments

I like the look of the tank esp the back ground, I'd be a little worried of your stock as they get older though. I've kept texases and gt's before and they're definitely both gonna get more aggressive as they get older especially in a 75G.
 
yeah i figured this stock wouldnt last long, i will prolly give the gt and the texas to my bro when they get big enough for his tank. the texas is just a couple of hairs biggger than the gt but the gt owns him.

Uaru plus GT, I think thats a risk.

Nice clear videos.

uaru and GT can work fine. i introduced 2 x 1" uaru to a 6" GT and he was fine and started to protect them oddly enough. not sure if i would risk it again though, it was a big risk.

I'm speaking on personal experiance. Allthough maybe it was because they still were aclimatising, and the GT was established. The uaru got their asses handed to them.
 
i dont know how long it will last but this lil uaru has got some fight to him/her. he stands up to the gt and the gt doesnt mess with him. but the gt is more concerned with the texas more than anything. the big blue dempsey and the jurapari i think keeps the tank under control, but i know later on they will have to be separated.
