Title: CALVUS AND ALTO
Post by: brad282 on May 31, 2005, 05:19:00 PM
I have some black calvus at 4-5cm just wondering what do u think an alto comp thats 5cm would go like with them, the calvus are aggresive towards each other but not my fronnies so do u reckon they would still be aggresive towards the alto comp because they are the same species. cheers

mate should be all good...all depends on the fish i guess.. i have 12  3-4cm calvus and 5  2-3cm comps and well the comps hide cause they r smaller but the calvus just sort there own..i no calvus have a defense mechanism of bending there body to expose the hard scales to other fish as i have seen my 2 10cm males do this and they aint hurt each other<
>not sure wheter comps do the same thing<
>cant see a problem. i dont think there all gona go pick on the comp jsut caus hes different though.. jsut see how he goes<
