Thinking About Getting Some Gbr's For My Planted Tank Need Advice&

[buffmaxwell]

So at my lfs they some very small gbr's, I'd say about an inch. I was wondering if they would do well in my tank. I currently have 3 ghost shrimp, one angel fish(also about a square inch big) and then one blue lobster about 2 and 1 half inches and then 3 neon tetras.

However I was wondering if they were aggressive enough to deal with my lobster. I've currently lost 2 neons within the last 12 hrs. However the ghost shrimp and the angelfish remain unfaised. Which I found odd becuz the neons ate fast quick swimmers, where as the angel fish and shrimp aren't.

Just seeing what your thoughts are.

Ps also thinking about regaining my lobster to my 50 gallon cichlid tank. But then I'm afraid he might turn into a snack. I have a pretty mean red tail botia and 5 inch green severum haha.

Fins and claws don't mix. Don't doubt the angelfish will disappear soon as well. The GBR's won't be able to stick up to a creature with an exoskeleton which eats anything it touches. I'd rehome the lobster.

Gbrs have different temp requirements. Uk, 30C Us, 80F

From looking on the net 80f should be suitable for GBR's and Angels, both should be happy with a PH of around 6.5. Im keeping GBR's in my tank with temp at 28 degrees and a PH of 7.2 so will see hiw long they last .... Fingers crossed
As i love them despie them being feisty little blighters!!! Lol
