I currently have two 5" inch tems in a 350 gallon with some stingray pups and was wondering if they are going to welcome two 5" inch kels... Or will the tems beat the crap out of them?

i'm saying from personal experience that they will beat the crap out of them! And that was with the kels in first!
 
I just added 2- 4" Tems into a tank with 2- 5" bahias already in it and the tems took over and bullied the kelb, but no one has been harmed. IMO as long as no one is harmed I'm OK with it because it's one of the things I like about Pbass.
 
So its pretty much hit or miss? My one tem is deff a bully he always pics on the other one even though they are the same size.

It's always good to have odd numbers when they are that small. Spreads aggression.

Only one way to find out. All bass are different. Id give it a shot.

Like bassguy said....a little bit of bullying is ok. As long as the bass arent gettn harmed its normal and ok.
 
I have 1 tem in a growout with 3 xingu. The tem is getting a bit bigger than them, & I just noticed today he's starting to act up towards them... But boys will be boys; the other 3 are not really affected by him making some dominant moves towards them.. And like these guys said, no damage seems to be coming of it.
