I have no trouble at all with my Ameca tank. It is maintained as a single species tank because those fish need a home and they are extinct in the wild. The single species tank means that the fish in it are not nippy at all. It turns out that Amecas are not prone to showing con-specific aggression but are prone to showing inter-specific aggression. You can't even keep a cory with them without it getting harassed. The X. eiseni are another story. I keep those in a tank and include some cories for bottom cleaning with no real troubles. AS N Monks has said, most of the remaining goodeids that I keep are relatively peaceful fish. I have C. encaustus in with a male molly, some cories and some nice bristlenose plecs and I have kept X. resolanae with things like ghost shrimp with no obvious problems, except there were no shrimp fry in the tank ever. My most common approach is to reserve each tank for a single livebearer species though. I actually have two tanks with nezzy swordtails in them because they come from different sources. Source information is important for wild type fish and I have no intent of allowing them to mix.
