howdy howdy to all my fishy friends,

i have a 1inch compressiceps in my community right now, waiting to go into my 55gal affy tank.. what are his chances of surviving if i throw him in now?

i have plenty of hiding spots but i also have 16 other affys .. they dont seem to be chasing eachother much since i redid my tank w/ the cichlid stones

all advice is appreciated

1 inch is pushing it.He may be ok it just depends how smart he is.I would wait for 2 inches.

i shoved twelve 1.5in red zebras in with about 5-7 mbunas. it dwindled down to eight. so there is a chance u will lose it, but as long as it has PLENTY of hiding places it should be ok xx

i think i'll wait a little while .. i really dont want to lose him & apparently the tank he's in (my community) is completely wrong & everyone has to be rehomed lol (zebra striped angel, 2 emerald cories, 2 knight gobies) .. looks like he'll have a tank to himself for a while

haha. what tank is he in then? x

 

[ronnieroach]

the comp is in w/ the angel, cories & gobies
