Can a Firemouth be kept alone in an aquarium, or will this cause eccentricity out the proverbial wazoo?
 
if you mean without another firemouth. then thats what i got.
but he does have to put up with 6 tetras and a chinese algea eater and sometimes feeder crayfish for the puffer. he likes the ceramic cave and knows when you are looking at him. have to drop the blood worms in and walk away before he comes out to eat.
if the crayfish gets scared into the cave, the firemouth gets disgusted and waits behind a stump until he leaves.

the firemouth is in the back. the anachris is real. it hasnt put roots down but seems to be doing well just floating. the other plant is fake. the cheesy painted gravel is there because it had the beneficial bacteria on it. saved cycling time.
