[Death in #'s]

maybe a pleco or a crab

 

[Croz]

convicts or some tetras

 

[piranha45]

a jack dempsey or green terror cichlid

You could get a huge Oscar in there, that'd be pretty sweet.

hold on... so i could get a jack dempsey or a oscar in my 75 with 5 rbp? I have been looking for something else to add. Do you think that these fish will work?

I wouldn't reccomend an oscar - chances are that it would end up on the menu.

I reccomend cheap fish like neon tetras and danios - well anything really that you don't care if it gets eaten, also silver dollers sometimes do well with RBPs.

xenon kept an oscar with his rbp's some months back, the oscar never recieved a bite from them.

Personally though, I would still opt for a dempsey or green terror anyway

I have a Jack and a huge otiger oscar with my rbp's and their was problems at first. The oscar got his tail nipped at a lot, but it is fine now! And the Jack runs the tank, he is the most aggressive so far, but that will change in a little while.

I believe it, as I had a severum with my piranhas, but one dat the piranhas will have a bit and it may or may not cause serious damage, but if it doesn't you should consider yourself lucky and move the cichlids

OR SO YOU THINK, as I said.
