L270 or L377?

Post by DJ-don »

Hey guys

I was wondering on helping choose between these too fish. I'm in quite a dilemma
My new tank is up and running and by the end of midway january the tank should be ready and i will be getting some fish
Or is it possible i could get a few of the 270's and a few from the 377's? Only problem is compatibility i would think

The tank is 90cm by 33cm
and about 50cm high

the fish i'm buying are juvy's

Thanks
DJ

They would be compatible, but I'm not sure if L377 doesn't grow a bit big for the L270 to be comfortable.

Should be OK. Just make sure you provide some veg for the L377.
