Can you mix strains? Are there certain strains more aggressive than others? I am sure there is a sticky I didn't find it.

Yes you can mix strains, but I would recommend if you are buying different strains from different suppliers that you quarantine them in a separate tank. hth

I definitely will, always have a hospital tank set up for Q-tine. Thank you for replying.

Most definitely can mix strains, most people do. Aggressiveness is more a function of the individual fish than the strain.

I prefer to mix strains in my display tanks! It provides a rainbow of colors to enjoy

Agreed. IMO , I would go with one supplier and buy the assortment you're looking for. Then look for a strain you absolutely must have and buy it , at that point don't forget to quarantine .
