My friend is getting a cichlid tank, and I'm growing a baby green severum for her. The little thing is very skittish and spends most of the time huddled up in the plants up by the heater.
I figured some dither fish would help it feel more at ease, but since I've never had severums before, I dunno how quickly they'd grow. I don't want to get tankmates that may become lunch in four months... Any suggestions? I hear the larger tetras are good, but I hear some of them are nippy...
Right now it's about the size of a postage stamp, in a 35 gallon with a baby bristlenose plecostomus.
