I have been thinking about mixing either a Texas or a Black Jack Dempsey or a Polleni with my Mbuna tank (which already contains a Convict and a Red jewel,Bristlenose and Clown Loach) or maybe even a Green Terror (just sold one actually..and miss him!)
I know people don't liek to mix them and I know the reasons why....water parameters...dietary..etc
I'm talking aggression wise...
I can get a Juvi of any of the 3 fish mentioned for pretty cheap (under £5) and wouldnt mind 'trying it out' how would it go down? and which would be the best choice? I'm thinking the Black JD.
I want like a large center piece New World.
Will any of these 3 at Adult size be able to eat a fully grown Mbuna?
If i keep the tank nice and crowded,I assume I can stop aggression.
Which shall I try out? if it gets bad I have a hospital tank and i will rehome....its been so far so good with my Con and Jewel.
My main concern would be whether these fish will be able to take a battering from a Demasoni while young as mine bosses my tank...the Con and jewel have learnt to stay out of his way
