[Jess]

They're lovely fish aren't they? I have to admit, i almost didn't get her. Id been told that they were very aggressive and shouldn't live in community tanks! She's probably the least aggressive of my fish!! Even the guppy is worse than her!! My little shark just swims around her shell, nudges the snail occassionally and sits in her pot!! So cute!!!

She's still a baby though, really... so maybe she'll get more aggressive with age...?

Mine did get a bit more aggressive as he got older...but only towards my tiger barbs... ...they are a greaceful fish...make sure theres lots of places for her to hide and call her own and she should be ok. I find that mine really likes cucumber.

 

[Jess]

wow... he's gorgeous!! and a lot bigger than mine!! as i said in a previous thread that pot is about 2 inches long!! she can fit right inside it

That little pot is hers!! Only the pleco is allowed inside! The others dont dare try... they have another one though!

Its a shame you cant keep two together (i was told they fight with their own kind)... id have a whole tank full of them!!

Oooh, and mine likes cucumber too! i put it in for the pleco really but she's so greedy!!

Ya a tank of them would be kinda cool....to bad it would be living hell

 

[Jess]

i would LOVE a tank full of RTBS and Bettas!!! that would be cool.... Shame they'd all probably kill each other!lol

And she was named 'Ruby' earlier by someone on this forum!!! Sorry, cant remember who it was... ) lol

Jess

That was me! I think the name Ruby suits her. She's so beautiful!

 

[Vip]

cute little guy, are they as agressive as there brothers the black shark?

 

[Jess]

Oh, yes it was Sahsa! Thank You!! I think it suits her too!! Just got to name all my other fish now... Or i might just call them Fish1, Fish2, Fish3 etc...lol

Vip - ive never had a black shark and dont know much about them at all. RTBS's cannot be kept together as when they get older they will get territorial, but as i said, mine is so peaceful with my other fish She's lovely

I guess as with other fish it depends on each individual's temperment
