My favourites- kribensis

[Conrad]

Pictures 1 and 2 are the male and 3 is the female kribensis. Had many people tell me that these fish are not compatible with gold rams but they get along just fine, even when breeding.

Lol I was just researching these for my new 29 gallon! I think they're great. My Harlequin RasBora's dominate the mid and top levels so these will have the mid to bottom to themselves

Thanks for the confirmation that these are good fish!

There are exceptions to every rule.

Kribs love a cave ornament as its where they nest, if you do get another mid/bottom fish then I would advise you to keep a fair distance between each of the dens/nest as you maybe aware Kribs are territorial when breeding normally but it's pot luck as mine don't have a problem sharing with other tank mates.

Thanks!


I'll definitely build them a cave or two, but they'll have the bottom to themselves

I just read that they need a 50 gallon tank. Darn. I have a 29.
