Описание: I've set up a 55G tank (48"x12"x21") to house two of my three Etroplus species, the Orange and Green Chromides. It was time to move them from their individual 25G tanks and I wanted to see these two species together since they live sypatrically in nature. The water has a sp.gr. of 1.005 although they can withstand up to 1.010 with no problem. My plan is to do a 50% water change every two weeks. The water is slightly stained amber from the larger piece of driftwood root in there. The two species ignore one another but several pairs of Etroplus maculatus are forming. These are adult fish, grow out F1s from my WC colony, and are about 2" TL. The Etroplus suratensis are just babies yet at about 2" and should max out in a year or so at 7-10". At some point they will need a much larger tank. There are 10 suratensis and 12 maculatus. I'm hoping to see evidence of a documented symbiotic behavior of the Orange chromides "grooming" the Greens. The return, at least in nature is the Green Chromides provide food for the Oranges in the form of their fry. That second part won't happen in my tanks if I can help it.
