who are these three fish?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
we have had the shark and the corys in the same tank for over a year together and they get along fine. I was just wondering about the convict and the frontosa. I don't know much about either. Everyone gets along, they all have their own areas and the jag keeps it that way.
 
The Jag will eventually do some nasty work, unless if you got a mellow one, which is usually a rare thing.

The convict is fully grown, and old, but still has a couple years left. The frontosa is still a baby. He can reach around 10 inches
 
we have actually had all of the above fish in this tank for over a year except the frontosa (the newbie) and have had no problems. The jag is about 12 inches, the shark 12 inches, the convict 6 inches, the firemouth 4 inches, the parrots 7 and 5 inches, the frontosa 3 inches and the corys 2 inches.
 
i'm guessing the jag is pretty mellow. because she just pushes the others around with her mouth open wide when they are in her way. but she never goes after them truly to eat or harm them. Mostly what i take as making sure they know she is the boss. I was way worried about the frontosa being so small, but if he stays on his end and can get into the castle when she roams his way, so far so good. I cant wait to see the frontosa when he gets to be 10 inches!
 
welcome to mkf!! whats ur ph at? u got americans with africans...looks great when tanks like that work out!! goodluck in the future!
 
i'm not sure what the ph is, my husband takes care of that. i'm glad that it has worked out, because we didn't really know what we were doing (not that we know now). what should the ph be for this mix of kinds of fish?
