Posts: 72 14/09/2009 6:46 PM	Tags : None Hiya, Im just setting up a couple of new tanks and I have been toying with the idea setting up a 2.5" tank with an undergravel and plenty of driftwood and from in a few small common bristlenoses and also a few peppermints, albinos and marbled. Is this recommended or not really a good idea due to different species? Any information is good information.

As long as the rest of the tank mates aren't aggressive you should be fine. But then, if you want to breed, then you need to limit the amount of fish in there because as they get bigger, the males get territorial. Why not set up a colony in each of the tanks you are setting up? One with pepps, one with albinos, etc. That way you are likely to get a higher percentage of babies comming out not common. -o00o- Haidee "I'd hug you, but first I need a new shirt.

This tank will also have tetra's, blue rams and bolivian butterflies. I may also add a couple of discus in at a later stage. But for the 2.5' i wanted a BN community tank with 2-4cm fish to begin with. The nice ones will be moved to the larger tank and I might even set up some smaller tanks to breed them. But as long as I know they are be happy together, thats all i need to know.
