Stocking With Reedfish?

[lilfishie]

Hi all not been about for a while. Changing my stocking around to free up the tank with Reedfish *please ignore my sig stocking/sizes not been on in a while*

Right i have a 4x1.5x1.5 that will contain

3 Reedfish
3 BNs

i do have the 2 SAEs in a smaller tank would these be ok with the Reeds?

*take it the BNs are safe?*

also looking for options for other fish, the tank is quite heavily planted, lots of hiding places

It's pretty simple with Reedfish. If you could picture them swallowing the fish, don't put it in. If it's too big to eat, they won't bother it. On the other hand, avoid large aggressive fish that might pick on the Reeds or at least hog all the food.

I wouldn't risk anything under 5cm.
And also, long thin fish will be more at risk than rounded species.

But Reeds are relatvely easy to keep.
Small groups like you have is good. Plenty of hiding places, and a balanced diet (minced fish, prawns, bloodworm etc)
