Red Head Tapajo's in the Comunity Tank

[Bill63SG]

They've ben laying eggs for some time,a week ago came home to a surviving spawn.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]They survived for 2 days,so I siphoned them out and threw them into a 5gal I had cycled.Hmmm,5gal,where'd I get that idea?[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

Nice job Mr. Bill. Looking forward to seeing them in my tank soon, Lol.

When they get a little bigger,Jeff.Obviously tolerate discus temps,and dont bother the discus,but do get into it with themselves,sometimes.Got a school of 6 in the 180.

[Bill63SG]

here they are a few weeks older.Moved them into a 40gal.[IMG][/IMG]Some endlers in there also.

Bill, how are these guys with Discus when older?

Wow,thats a crappy picture,time to wipe off the tank.

I found they are fine with discus,tolerate the temps,and even,obviously,breed.They can be a little active,and if there is any aggresion,its amongst themselves,unless they have fry.Then they protect like any pair.

Bill you don't have a problem with the geos out competing the discus for food? That was my only problem with them.

I didnt have that problem,but I knew of others that did.They are in a 180 communitty,with schools of tetras and a bunch of plecos and cories,so I have a tendency to overfeed.Clean-up crew takes care of the excess.
