I have finally narrowed it down to 2 speices. Which of the following would make a better solo/show fish for a 100 gallon tank.
Which is the better solo fish?
- Thread starter driftwood
- Start date
I honestly didn't realize I was in the media lounge but what the heck, maybe some pics of these 2 species.
I chose the Red Isletas. I've grown quite fond of Amphilophus, Paratheraps and Veija species lately. Beani are very cool fish too, just them being prone to bloat pushes me towards the other.
Ive lost 2 of my beani juveniles and its like flushing money down the drain. Go for the red isletas
When it comes to Wet Pets/Solo fish, the Amphilophus species are just unmatched by any other family of fish imho. Theire overall personalities and not to mention glassbanger potential is way beyond even Dovii's and Umbee's in my experiences.
The Beani is a beautiful fish no doubt, it's just way down the ladder when it comes to Wet Pets in my book. I'd rather have a pair of those, and finding a healthy pair of Beani isn't exactly a walk in the lfs. (see what i did there?)
