kole and convict

[Skerp]

Anyone keep these two fish together? I was wondering if anyone has seen aggression between the two? I only ask because they are the same basic body shape and figure it would be a problem keeping the two together but I've never heard of anyone talk about these two being kept together so I figure I'd ask.

thanks

It all depends on the fish. I had those two in a tank they did fine. I set up another tank put another two in the new one they fought until the kole died.

wow I have never seen a convict that is an aggressor. All the ones I have seen and been around run around not looking twice at any other fish. I could see the kole having probelms with the convict.

In a decent sized tank you should be fine. In a smaller tank you could definitely have issues. What is the size of tank we are talking about?

 

[Skerp]

I'm thinking either a 5' 150g or 6' 180g

Get the 180! You won't be dissapointed.

Add the two tangs at the same time, and you shouldn't have any problems in a tank of that size.

i don't have any issues with mine in my 180.
