Suitable Tankmates for S.Eupterus
Posted: 04 Jan 2012, 21:27
I need to sort out my current stocking. I have the above Catfish in a community set up with a golden zebra loach, female guppies, a platy and some mountian minnows.
The catfish seems to think that his tank mates are just mere midnight snacks so i need to get more robust tank mates for this lunatic.
I have been advised with African Cichlids. However the thought of keeping Cichlids quite frankly terrifies me and i'm not sure i know enough about them having never kept them before. I have read up and the african tans seem to prefer hard alkali water (something which go's for me in my area) but the aggression and size of the tank i may need puts me off slightly.
Can anyone suggest of less aggressive tank mates for this loon who will not be savaged anytime the light go's off?
