i have a 90 gallon growout tank with the fish in my signature, and was curious to know if a festae would work with them? i got most as babies so they can grow together and hopefully wont be as aggressive with eachother. the jag is 2", texas 1", leporinus 3", salvini 3", geo 6", moorii 7". the only aggression in there is between the geo and moorii, but not bad at all.
 
Growout tank as in you have another tank to move them in when they get bigger?


Your two largest fishes in that tank are what we usually consider not highly aggressive so it might work.

yeah a 150 when they get a little bigger. i chose to get them small cause i want them to grow together, and the price is better too! the festae would be in that same size range.

Festae can't really be sexed till around 3" so it should be fine to be added last if you can find a proven female.
 
alright appreciate the info man.

how about a polleni around the same size as well? im not stuck to having all centrals, but i've always loved the way these guys look
