3 Fh In A 75 Gallon

[Mopar32985]

I was woundering what you guys think about putting 3 FH in a 75 gallon. I know i couldnt keep themin there for life, just for like a half of a year. They are now about 3 to 4 inches. Any help or suggestions woulld be great help thanks.

You could grow them out but if aggression flares you could end up with deaths cos these things dont mess around.

3 FHs and no dividers = bloodbath

provide them with alot of cover. You will have one dominate FH. There maybe some nip fins but death can be prevented if you keep a close eye on them.

Probably best to avoid the death possibility all together and just divide em.

3 of them will outgrow your 75g very fast, my FH lives with a JD and a Blue Lobster in a 75g. He started off about half the size of my JD, however within 6 months he was twice the size (they are really greedy too). He then started to bully the JD a bit but sort of half heartedly gave up after he worked out the JD could take it. Now they all live peacfully, however I still have to watch them closely, just in case. 3 FH in a 75g I personally think will be too small for them to keep out of each others way.

Hard to say. I highly doubt you can keep 3 in a tank as small as a 75g for 6 months.

I had a 2" FH and a 2 1/2" managuensis in a 75g and it lasted 3 days. Came home to just the head of the managuensis in the corner of the tank.
