maniacyosh 1986 Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Hey guys just got a 25cm zonatus... kick ass fish. But my synspilum is being pretty rough. There are a few other big cichlids but no other vieja. Should I buy a fenestratus that is available to even it out a little as maybe the 30cm Synspilum will leave them alone if there is two? Or is this just the synspilum since it is the biggest making it clear he's runs the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maniacyosh 1986 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 It's 8×2×2. Has some driftwood and holey rocks but I avoid caves as the devil and jag like to claim them. Do you think more vieja would help by dispersing the aggresion or hinder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbee Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 every time i introduced large adult fish i always do a water change and rearrange the decor, worked for me 90% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maniacyosh 1986 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Did a water change before I picked him up and rearranged the tank at that time. Was a couple hours before hand so they might have gotten it all sorted. I am going to buy another vieja today to see if that helps to deflect some of the aggresion. I'll rearrange the tank before I introduce him aswell. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
