Hi Friends !

Today my Brother gifted me a pair of Elephant-Nose fish, but I've still kept them in the packing and not let them in my tank because I ont know much about them.

Can they live with the Red-Parrots and Blue Dolphin Chichlids ? Are they aggressive or will they be harmed by the red-parrots or chichlids ?

Please advice asap friends...

Thanks !

I have a pair if 18 year-old elephant noses that had never met another fish in their life, until 6 months ago. They are living in my most aggressive tank, along with a frontosa cichlid, that likked a friend's pleco & other large, aggressive species. It is a 125g tank though, with a ton of cover.
 
Pufferpunk,
EIGHTEEN YEARS!! Nice! That's some seriously good and consistent husbandry. Congratulations!

LOL, can I count their "nose" (actually a bottom lip)? Around 9-10" then. The funny thing it, they eat anything I toss in there, even flakes!
 
Really? My LFS said 30 but what do they know...
