Not much. I qouls assume they are normal size at 1 inch, right? If so, they may be eaten.

nope they grow up to 3 inches, but probably 2, ive got 2 that are 2inches and 3 that are 1.5

they're very quick?

i was thinking of getting some swordtails? would they be alrite with the kribs?

 

[kribensis12]

The tetras may be alright. The swordtail may work aswell. I have had swordtails in with kribs and they were fine, but you never know.

 

[mattbond]

what do you call fish (like swordtails) that give the kribs something to chase and stops them having a go at eachother and other fish?

hi all its my first post,i had 2 femail kribs they were bought as a pair anyway,they have been in my 300ltr,bow front tank about 10month,i went out and bought a male just over a week ago,he paired up right away with one of the girls,now theres a load of young in there,they scatter the other fish but dont do anything drastic,and theres alsorts in there,,swordtails tetras corys,plecs,clown loaches,a parrotfish,silver dollas,they are huge and nothing bothers anything,so,,we can put other fish all together,and live in harmony.mind you theres loads of places for them to hide,and my mail keeps going over to the other femail and has a playabout with her,so we might have more youg to come,so in a few weeks time if all are biger there will be some young going if anyone wants any

we still have loads of little ones my god they the bullterrier of the fish world,theres nothing will go near them,they not really aggressive,they dont have to be,as nothing dare go near there corner,i think its becouse theres loads of places for them to hide,and the tanks big enough for them all to get,away,

thanks youve filled me with confidence, im hopeing the male will colour up more, the female is gorgus

the male stood up 2 3 clown loaches, who promptly scattered into thier coconut shell lol

how long on average does it take for fry to appear?
