Fish Fanatic
I started a 20 high with a plan but my fish had a different idea but he isn't telling HELP. I have 4 green tetras, 1 neon, 1 cory cat 3 ghost shrimp and 1 roseline shark (red line torpedo ).
When I set up the tank I wanted to get 2 Sharks but I only brought one home and put one on hold. I went back got the new shark. Well 30 sec out of the bag our old started to nip and attack the new. I rearranged and gave them darkness for 14hrs. They still hated each other.The poor new guy was pinned down under the Java Fern. My LFS took the newbie back (thank god). But now I'm left with a kinda empty tank I know I can't go overboard here but what do you think I should add? I figure stocking formula to be 24 in. so I have 10 ( I'm giving the big guy 6-7 inch growth but he is only 2.5 in now).
I hope to set up another tank late Summer after vacations are over, I'll try my luck at a school of Roselines then. Then maybe old grumpy will be able to play nice with others then!!!
