  • Question about Auratus Male

    I have an Auratus 2.5'' Male along with this african's

    yellow labs (male & Female) 2''
    red zebra- female 2.5''
    red top hongi 1.5''
    Yellow acei 1.5''
    Kenyi- female 2''
    Pleco 4''
    channel catfish 4.5

    the problem is that the auratus keep all the others away of the holey rock he only left the catfish go in, is no vicious cause the others swim fast away but I prefer if all enjoy the rocks, should I put more Holey rock to gave more territory available?, I've been thinking in bringing a female to see if he calm a little bit down? Just want to know the opinion of those with more experience in africans mixes let me know

    Auratus are very aggresive fish. You can add more rock, but chances are you may need to remove the auratus

      10-4 on the Auratus being a Turd. I have one myself that I should just feed to the cats. He even tries t bully my Dempsey around.

        In my experience, auratus are just downright mean.
