Hoplo Cat

[ghent_3rd]

Does anybody know if the Hoplo likes to be kept with more of it's own species. I'll be honest, I have 1 in a Rio 180 and he seems happy enough and is probably one of my more lively fish to be truthful!!!

Just wondering really, not necessarily planning on getting any more while he seems this happy.

They are very sociable fish and do better in groups. You will see the best of them if you keep 3 or more as they become very active but not at all aggressive. I have 3 in my 55 gal, which i've had for about 3 years now and they are great fish, bags of personality.
