Hi all,
My sajicas has separated again due to me cleaning their cave. They have been separated for 2 weeks now and even the male isn't that interested in their cave anymore. Seem to have lost its sparkle, very muted now. Not as territorial. The female doesn't eat during feeding time (never did anyway when they were together as she was guarding the cave), and now hides in the corner or top of the tank.
My 2 very small firemouths (male and female) never really got on since buying them (separately, same shop). The male kept chasing her away, and she stays at the back of the tank most of the time now.
I have a 90L which I'm due to setup after my exam in mid May but the two female cichlids aren't eating much so I thought I should probably get the tank running and fatten them up. Good idea?
My plan was to put my 12 tiger barbs in there with the liver catfish (until it outgrows the tank), or the 12 tigers with the 2 sajicas. Or 12 tigers with the 2 firemouths (until they get bigger)? Which combo would be best?
Any other suggestions welcomed.
