Black Ghost Question

[nmore]

hi all,
i just wanted to know that can i keep a black ghost in my discus tank i love the way they are but do't have a spare tank and don't want to get one either...
i read it somewhere here only someone kept the 2 together i know they won't go with my oscars for sure

asked @ my lfs they say they won't go together

 

[Squidward]

Not sure.

BGK are placid, so I don't think there would be a problem with that.
I don't know what the max temp they would be happy with though.

I kept a blackghost with discus many yrs ago and wouldn;t hesitate to do so again if I didn;t have tetras in there

first of all, i agree that bgks are really kewl fish. but keeping them with discus? only a few bgks have ever suceeded in a discus tank. the temp. is too high

 

[Raveston]

The temp would def be too high for the BGK, or too low for the Discus, wouldn't be fair for one of the fish no matter what you did. I think it's a bad idea.
