I'M Not Looking For Trouble...

Would it be ok to have a pair of Apistogramm Agassizi with a Firemouth?

My setup up at the moment is 100 litre, 10 rummy nose tetra, one young gibbicep (under 3 inches, I know he will have to go to a bigger home shortly, 2 zebra danios, and the Firemouth.

Also what are the Agassizi like with territories? Is 2 of these fish a good number to have?

Thanks in advance!

Should be fine, just give the apistos some ground cover (plants and terracotta pots work well).

If you get a male and a female, a pair is great to have, yes.

The Agassizi males can be a little agressive to other males but not too bad. Make sure the tank has lots of hide outs and you should be fine.

Thanks for the advice, I'm just waiting for some to come into my local shop!

Just make sure that the new firemouths don't start picking on the Agassizi.
