AllGo'n'Show Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Does anyone know of anything that you can keep with some RBP without any trouble? We are picking up a 72gal tank and 5-7 RBP here in the next little bit and want to try and keep sme other fish in the tank. We plan on feeding them everyday so they don't get hungry and eat each other, and hopefully not eat any other mates we put in with them?

Tanker Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 With that size of tank, and that number of fish, you'll run out of room if you try to add too many of anything else, once the RBPs grow. This is especially true with daily feedings, as that will generate a lot of waste products. If you had four RB, you may be able to sneak in a couple oscars, or other large, aggresive fish. But be wary of anything fast moving or brightly coloured... piranhas will bite anything if it catches their attention. Overfilter, overfilter, overfilter!

skinless Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 exodons in a 72. buddy has a pleco thriving with a set of rbp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllGo'n'Show Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 The 72 is just the first tank for his room. His bro is picking up another 55gal and we organized his room to fit 2 more tanks. By the time the RBP's grow full size, we hope o have moved out which means there will be one 120gal+ tank in the basement for whomever needs alot of room. thanks for your opinions guys!
