ERH or EBH is very easy to keep. mine grew from the usual 50 cents size to currently 6 inches within 3 to 4 weeks. they feed on SW.

in fact for my ERH, they are starting to grow "threads" on their fins... not sure how to describe it, more like angel fish but very fine extension to their fins

I like your combination.. Doraudo and ray are perhaps my choice of keeping.

top-mid-bottom dweller fishes
- top dweller = Aro
- Mid Dweller = Argentea,spotted Gar,ST.ERH and many others
- Bottom Dweller =Rays or endis or pacman etc[/QUOTE]

Top-mid-bottom fishes seems nice to keep but must really wait till my water is stabilise than I will venture.

Hi all

I am thinking of doraudo, rays, cories and PNT in a 6ft tank... Oddballs like knifefishes, ghost fishes black/albino, albino patin, pleco in 5ft tank.. Do you think that this setup would work?

Cheers

Your PNT will bite, eat or kill alot of the bottom dwellers like the cories.

So far, my PNT didnt kill any of my cories.. But, I am just afraid that PNT might kill the rays.. Any suggestion.. Cheers
