What Size To Buy A Festivum?

[koinukun]

Hiya everyone!

My LFS is ordering me in a selection of Festivums and has offerend me a choice of two sizes, either small (about 4cm i think he said) or larger (10cm)

I was wondering if anyone could tell me any pros or cons of getting the larger one over the smaller. Initially I thought of getting the smaller on because I've had bad experiences with older fish not acclimatising as well as younger ones and dying 2 or 3 days later. But I'm worried that if I did get the smaller one it'd be luchsize for my angelfish (over 5" now)...?

Then there's the attraction of having a larger fish to look at rather than a teeny tiny one hiding in the plants all the time. Also, would the angelfish have more problems accepting a large new fish over a small one?

I was wondering if anyone had some advise on what I should do?

Thanks in advance!

a small one would be nice to watch it grow, but angel may decide its dinner, larger one would be the better bet, as to the compatability its a try and see, depends on tank size aswell
