I said that it's a pathetic app first time I saw it.

..... its just a warning. That website gives helpful suggestions. its not forcing you to put anything in your tank or keep anything out

I would not stock Glowlights with a RT Black Shark either.

Why do you say it's pathetic? It actually seems like a fairly decent starting point to me. Just wondering.

How is a red tail black shark going to eat a glowlight? Unless the tetra was a new born and the shark was starved to the brink of death that would never happen. All my shark ever wants to eat is algae, he doesn't even eat daphnia lol

RT Black Sharks are highly territorial bottom-dwellers who often bully other bottom-dwellers (such as Glowlights).

They may coexist in a very large tank, but Aqadvisor is right to point out that they are incompatible in most aquariums.

Aqadvisor is the most reasonable approximation of stocking and filtration capacity I have found. It is far from perfect but it is worlds better than the 1" per gallon rule.

It should serve as a good starting point, especially for the less experienced aquarist.

I cant seem to find anything that says the RTS will eat any of those fish. It does, however, say that the RTS is too aggressive for them. Maybe somebody's reading and comprehension skills are rubbish?

edit: Doh! it does say RTS may eat the Glowlights. Maybe my reading skills are also rubbish. Either way, just because you don't like the answer doesn't mean its wrong. Use the app or don't use the app. Its up to you. Just don't start a "Why did my RTS kill my fish?" thread later on.
