When I purchased these, were only marked as wild caught agassizii. Now I've got fry so wanted to accurately identify before homing. I'm thinking I have sp tefe but mine does not have a spaded tail but rounded so not confident with my id. Thanks in advance.
The species is wild caught Agassizii. The reason I removed the cardinals is one came down and snatched/ate a fry. I'll consider pencil but I've seen some variants get quite large. What's a good variant that stays relatively small? I've been spot feeding with bbs but it appears they've also been...
I have a 30Gal. Initially I had a harem of 1 male and 3 females with a couple otos. The male at first was very territorial chasing the females around all day. I removed the male. Added 8 cardinal dither. No issues, females all schooled together. Reintroduced the male, to my surprise no more...

My question is, will they be ok with thee four of them together? There are essentially 4 cave-like areas but the male will do his rounds and go to each area and chase out the female then moves on to the next area. Should I have stuck with 2? My tank is heavily planted. TIA
Hello everyone - Just picked up a group of wild caught Agassizi today. 1 male and 3 females. The male is quite the bully and very territorial. Hopefully they settle in and mellow out. Their colors are coming in slowly from when I saw them at the lfs. Only other tank mates are 2 ottos. I have...
