WhoWeR Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 We are going to sell the tanks in the garage and the firemouths will have to go into a display tank or find a new home. The options are african or mix of small fish The African has planned at the moment: trio of Labidochromis sp "Mbamba" trio of Metriaclima fainzilberi (Albino) two Humpheads trio of BN I am hoping to add a couple of other trios, not sure what yet. The other option is our 6ft and it has: rainbows, blue eyes, seprae tetras, plecos, congo tetras, bolivan rams, kuli loaches, corys, flying foxes, borneo sucker and whiptails. I think they are a bit too aggressive to go in there. What do you guys think? Jenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMonkey Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 Hey Jenny... I would say, if they are the only options, the African tank would be the way to go... Firemouths can get pretty aggressive at times and the lil guys wont be able to handle them.. my 2cents Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
japes Posted May 11, 2008 Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 They should do fine in the African tank. While I do recommend against mixing Americans and African Rift Lakes, Firemouths are very hardy fish and live in relatively hard/high pH water in Central America, so it shouldn't be too difficult on them.
