Hi All

I have just acquired a pair of these, 6" long at the moment but destined to grow much bigger

They are currently residing in a 3ft tank but I'm in the process of buying a 6x2x2 just for them.

I'd appreciate any advice from anyone who has kept these before, especially if there are any other fish that can be safely kept in the same tank. (Big Plecos are my thought)

Both girls?

Pleco work. I keep mine with some large Silver Barbs.

Here's a movie of a 19" male and his mate with the dithers.
