Syn. ocellifer

Post by ecoli »

So I took pity for a 2 inch Syn ocellifer hiding behind a filter tube 4 month ago in the LFS. After release, he/she promptly disappeared under some hollow plastic tree stump.

I moved that stump yesterday, and out swim this 7 inch fat monster of a fish :shock:

Question: Is he close to his max size now and how is his temperment? Also, will he get along with my syn. Multis?
I do have lots of rocky hiding places and I have not observed any signs of aggression, but then I have not stared at the tank in the dark either...

I've had one for years, and mine is probably a little larger than that.

I've never kept them with multis, though I've found mine to have quite an agreeable temperament.
