thnx though but im not very interested in catfish. how about plecos? i think they fit very well.
i put my RD flowerhorn with her, she chases my RD all over the tank. O.O i release her in my pond.
It's usually accomplished by overstocking the tank to spread out aggression, but if you decide to go that route be prepared to lose or rehome a lot of fish in the process. Some fh are more tolerant of tankmates than others so it really comes down to individual temperament and tank setup, but IME they look better and are less prone to stress related disease when kept solo. Most plecos should be fine but I wouldn't recommend other cichlids unless they are the opposite gender
No problem man, I don't mean to be a downer but fh are unpredictable so it really is all trial and error like mike said. A 130 is more than enough space tho so tankmates are definitely possible, but for me the most rewarding part about raising fh was getting a pair to sucessfully breed so I definitely think finding a male for her is your best optionim not taking the risk. if tht so, ill leave him alone until i found male for them to breed. thanks a lot though. helps a lot.
