Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hello fellow fish enthusiasts! I just joined Aquarium Advice so I can talk to other people who enjoy fish. My wife really doesn't understand but is humoring me!
So I do have a question for you all - I set up my tank a couple of months ago (15 gallon) and started out with six silver tip tetras. Later added two Cory cats.
About a week ago I got two lyre tail mollies to complete my community. The mollies are gorgeous! But so far they are mostly hiding from those feisty tetras! Haven't seen them at the top feeding yet. ( I have live plants, artificial plants and a big chunk of aquarium wood in there.). It took the tetras a couple of weeks to feel comfortable enough to eat.
What I'm wondering is whether the tetras are just too wild for my mollies. They aren't chasing them but they do really zoom around and dominate the tank. Any experiences with these silver tips?
Thanks!
