Will these fish be ok together?

[SilverDollar_03]

These fish in my 55 Gallon:

3 Silver Dollars 1-2" (already have)
1 Spotted Silver Dollar 2" (already have)
5 Aeneus Corydoras 1" (already have)

I want to get 1 Rainbow Shark, 6 Neon Tetras, and 4 Harlequin Rasboras. Will this be ok? Tell me, will the tetras be eaten when the silver dollars get big?

Um i might watch out for the corues becouse the red tailed shark got very agressive towards mine.

 

[SilverDollar_03]

ok, thats what i was thinking. i might buy a different fish instead.

 

[nitro]

i would watch the swordtails as well!

 

[SilverDollar_03]

what do you mean you would watch the swordtails? whats wrong with them?

ok, thats what i was thinking. i might buy a different fish instead.

How about a rainbow shark? They are really cool IMO and mine is fine with my cories.

I also have no idea what would be wrong with getting swordtails.

I have a RTB shark with corydoras and it has never shown aggression towards them. They will be fine with each other. Silver dollars i dont know they might get chased a little but not harmed, My RTB shark chases some fish but never harms them.

Aren't swordtails livebearers? Maybe nitro meant that you'll end up with lots of fry.

Easily solved by only getting males. or only getting females.

I don't think there would be any other problems with them

Not with three Silver Dollars in the tank there won't.

Problem solved then

 

[SilverDollar_03]

really? why wont there be fry with the silver dollars? will the silver dollars simply eat the fry? by the way i have 4 silvers, not 3 (1 of them is spotted)

 

[clutterydrawer]

I think he was implying that the silver dollars would eat the fry

I always though silver dollars were vegetarian
but then I don't really know anything about them

 

[SilverDollar_03]

they are omnivores. anything that fits in their mouth will be eaten, haha.

oh, does anyone think I could add about 5 Harlequin Rasboras as well?
