Hey hey,

I met this girl today that works in a pet shop who told me that its was possible to keep mixed shoal of RTBS and RFBS if you buy them very small and at the same time with a larger number of RFBS's and put them in a large well established tank where they are the smallest fish.

She claims to have done it and she said that because they shoal together when they are smaller for safety they remain doing so when larger and don't bother the other fish even if the sharks get bigger than them.

It sounds dubious to me although I would love a shoal if it works. I thought both RTBS and RFBS were one to a tank and avoid other fish of the same shape.

Could this be viable?
 
Their socerial when small, but as they grow the get very territorial and need a large area for each fish.
1 fish per 3 foot min...... better rearly is 4'
