Sprucegruve Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Could my red tailed shark be in the same tank with my rasboras? I'm thinking of doing a Asian biotope. Right now the shark and the rasboras are in separate tanks Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sprucegruve Posted May 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Ok thanks, iv been on google the last 2-3 hours and cant find any solid information on housing these two together Anyone else got experience with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettaFishMommy Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 i have an albino rainbow shark, and they are supposed to have much the same 'personality' as red tails. mine is housed with some small danios, rainbows, a few barbs, and a couple plecos. one thing i've read and found in my tank is that the shark will chase fish that have a lot of red on them - the longfin rosy barbs and the black ruby barb in my tank make a dang game of it i swear, lol. i think your shark would be fine with the rasboras. red tail and rainbow sharks tend to pick a spot in the tank to call their own, and other than guarding that area, they are pretty peaceful in my experience.
