Who Gives A Fish Forums

Mine are both around 6 months old. Not fully grown yet. Sounds like I might need to monitor closely. Appreciate the advice, everyone.

Yep, I've run 'em together in a 55-gallon. They're chill if you've got enough hiding spots. My tank's got java fern, anubias, and some crypts. Key is to keep the P. pulcher well-fed—they get sketchy when hungry. What's your feeding routine like?


Thanks for the tip. I feed frozen brine shrimp ...

Has anyone kept H. sauvagei and P. pulcher together? I've got a 40-gallon planted tank with a Fluval 307, sand substrate, and plenty of driftwood. Water params are stable, 78°F, pH 6.8, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 10 nitrate. Just wanna know if they'll mess with each other.

Agreed. Breeding behavior escalates territoriality. If you're attached to the pair, prioritize upgrading. Otherwise, rehoming one Angel might balance the tank. The Tetras and Corys are fine as-is.

I've got a 30 gallon tank with 10 Neon Tetras, 5 Corydoras, and a pair of Angelfish. Running a Fluval 307 canister filter, weekly 25% water changes, and parameters are stable at 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 10 nitrate. The Angelfish seem a bit territorial lately. Am I pushing it?


Your stocking isn't ...

Your bioload is manageable with the current filtration and maintenance, but Angelfish need more horizontal space as they grow. A 30 gallon is borderline for a pair long-term. Are they juveniles? If they're over 3 inches, consider upgrading or rehoming one.

Thanks for the insight, I did get told by a few local stores that with the tank size it should be alright, but I'll hang on a bit until the little ones are a bit bigger, don't want to risk missing any as they're tiny at the moment.

Hi everyone,

I've got a 500 litre community tank with a mix of fish - 2 Brichardis, 2 Kribs, 2 Angel Fish, various tetras, neptunes, and Mollies.

I rearranged the tank about a week ago, moving bogwood and plants around, and then last night I made a pretty surprising discovery - the Brichardis have ...
