They're incompatible with almost all of the fish that you listed. I'll take the advice of the previous poster a step further and say Malawis with Malawis, Haps with Haps, Tangs with Tangs, because not all Africans are compatible with each other. |

You could maybe add a single Bristlenose or a single Syno (of a compatible species which doesn't school), but definitely not any kind of community mix. Sorry, but if you want a community, yellows are out. If you prefer the yellow to the community, I'd add a group of five and then remove any extra males down the line. One male and three females will be about max in there, with plenty of rockwork. Last edited by LittleMousling at 02-May-2005 08:31 -Molly Visit shelldwellers.com! |
