Will severums kill my tetras?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Ya they're not staying there permanently. Eventually going into a 75, then the 240 which will have my aro, a bass, a datnoid, and a tig (ya random stocking). They're about 2" now, how long before they hit 4-5" you think? They're gonna be fed a lot and with frequent water changes as well. I just want them to have a large enough "disk" size where my little pbass growout doesn't try to eat them.
 
As long as they aren't small enough to fit in their mouth you should be fine.
 
Cool cool, I see you've got some diamonds too Nemesis. Definitely an underated tetra, I seriously want a school of over 20 of these guys in a big tank. They've definitely got that bling bling
 
Yeah, I love my little guys. I definitely wouldn't mind having a big group of them one day. There seems to be a lot of them floating around lately. If it means anything, I had my 6.5" rotkiel with my diamonds for about a month(smallest tetra being 1.5", and others about 2") with no problems.
 
should not be a problem as long as they don't fit into the Sev mouth. I keep 2 6-7"super reds with a school of 16 Columbia Tetra in a 120 with no issues.
 
Nem, yeah this is the first season I've seen 'em at LFS or maybe I wasn't looking before. I'm trying to get mine to breed too just incase they stop selling them in the future. I know they're almost extinct in the wild. I was gutted when I lost my large male last week :/

Dmoney1, thanks for the input too bro. Sell me that pleco if you're ever up here haha
