Bagrichthys with Pethia?

Post by Shovelnose »

I am holding a B.macracanthus (~5 inches) for a friend, is it safe to keep it with a bunch of small (~1 inch) Pethia?

Major: Now what's this... stone, stone, stone, (looks down at his hand) and scissors. Now. Scissors cut everything, don't they?
Sergeant: Not stone, sir.
Major: They're very good scissors!!

They have quite small mouths, so I don’t foresee problems.

Alright, thanks HH. I dropped it in yesterday and I don't think there's gonna be any problems, seems to be a very docile species.

Black Lancers are docile during the day but active after dark !
