	Green chromide and loaches
ClownyGirl Fish Addict Posts: 508 Kudos: 311 Votes: 5 Registered: 07-Oct-2004	HI, I am getting a couple of green chromides and plan to add them to my 79 gallon loach tank. They are 5 inches in size at the moment. In the future, I may keep just one of them, or get a larger tank. I want to know if they will get along with my 4 inch angel, I know there will be some trouble, but how bad can it get. Additionally, will they eat my kuhli loaches. My other option is to add them to my cichlid tank that has a combination of a convict, a texas and a salvini. Please let me know.

Considering potential size and agressiveness I'm not sure it's such a good tankmate for kuhlis and angels even without the salt.

Yup, the potential size is also what I am concerned about, so I was thinking maybe to add them to my cichlid tank or should I just pass them up ... I guess I should, I may be getting too greedy
