Aquarium Advice Freak
I have had my tank running for about 4 months now, with a convict/firemouth and 6 black skirt tetras along with a BNP that hides during the day. Everything has been smooth, however, lately my convict has started getting into the habit of uprooting my plants. I also noticed the other day she is starting to get a bit more aggressive with the firemouth. I was hoping that having them both as juveniles would increase my chances of them getting along but I'm not sure that will work out.
So for now I'm planning on taking the convict to my LFS, and replacing it with either another school of tetras, or another tankmate compatible with the firemouth.
I was running through some random scenarios on aqadvisor and most seemed to check out ok, but they don't take aggressiveness/territoriality/personality into account.
I do 50% w/c weekly, and have 2 AC50s running on my 20g long, so they have some decent space and quality water.
Any firemouth owners want to add anything?
