I'm setting up a new 50 gallon tank (48"x12"x18) and still kind of trying to figure out what I want to go about putting in it
It's gonna be my last tank til I own a house, so I'm aiming for something different from what I already own, and blockheads fit in that category
I was just wanting to get some clarification on keeping them together
a lot of websites state they should be kept in pairs, but pairing is frustrating for me and i have no interest in breeding them. I've also seen a lot of people keeping them in groups of 3, and i'm not sure if that's a normal (or proper) way to keep them. I'd be interested in having a trio or small group but I'm concerned of an unintentional pair forming and possibly killing conspecifics.
Anyone have any experience with these guys that can tell me a thing or two about their behavior with their own kind?
