noyakfat Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Hi All, I have an 8x2x2 housing: 1 x juvenile festae 1 x female convict 1 x juvenile gold saum 1 x juvenile jack dempsey 1 x juvenile polleni 2 x common bristlenose 7 x tiger barbs. All is well after about two months of living together. I was wondering about the possibility of adding an active catfish into the mix, but I am not sure about compatibility and water parameters. Would a Synodontis multipunctatus be suitable? I'm sure I've read somewhere about people keeping them with large americans before. Any other suggestions (or rejection of this as a workable idea) would be most welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noyakfat Posted February 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 a little more research suggests perhaps i could try a couple of Pictus cats (Pimelodus pictus)... any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noyakfat Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Cheers Hasu, Once my yanks grow up the TB's may be in trouble anyway (especially when the jag gets in there). They are working very well as dithers at the moment, and they are very very fast. Time will tell. Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
