I've wanted butterflies (Pantodon) for many years and I'm finally getting around to it but I need a bit of advice on tankmates... the minimum size of fish seems to vary from website to website.
Would rosy barbs be too nippy? I have kept them before and not found them to be overly aggressive or nippy.
Would butterflies eat anything on this list?
Platys
Rosy barbs
Larger tetras ie. serpae
I would also love some opinions on a good tank size for two butterflies. I have a 20 gallon and a 38 gallon free. It goes against the grain to put a four inch long fish in the 20, but the thread on butterflies in the fish index of this forum says 10-15 gals.
