I just read this somewhere:
"White Tip Sharks are often seen in aquariums with Neotropical Cichlids such as Firemouths, Jack Dempseys, Pink Convicts, Black Convicts, and Texas Cichlids. But these Cichlids are not compatible with the Livebearers listed above."
This site also mentions that they rarely grow larger than 6" in captivity
But then on AC it says:
"Although distinctly predatory, they are not aggressive and on the contrary, can be bullied by fishes like cichlids."
There is no mention of the size other than a max of 18"
Who should I believe? Cichlids actually sound like a cool companion, but I don't want this guy to get all messed up and I am also starting to worry about the size thing, because I was really under the belief that this guy would not get up to more than 6-8".
