Today I added a 2nd blue acara to my tank, I’m not sure on the sexes of either of them, but since they’ve been added they constantly follow each other round the tank and sit in caves together, I had noticed the larger acara swam in front of the smaller and started to twitch, is this a bad sign I...

Would I small juvenile rainbow shark do well in a 30 gallon tank until I upgrade to a 55 towards the end of the year, I have read up on red tail sharks but I get the impression they are more aggressive so I think the rainbow would be a better option, thanks.
