Just checking idea here:

[TYPO]

OK, I think im going to tear down the 10g, gget homes for the billion convict fry, and the parents (have a home for the parents)

Here is what im planning:
planted, throw in my 2 amano shrimp, get some more.. maybe a few ottos or pigmy cories.
ill get the female endlers i have (unknow. definatley 1+), and the males, (i know i have back up to 7) and let them do their thing.
{im so happy!! the baby males are getting their orange spots!!}

anyway, heres the final question:
is is possible to keep a type of hatchet fish in a 10g?
I know they like to have large surface area, but theres a few species, some smaller than others; and, from what i heard, they would be gentle enough to be in this very peaceful setup, correct?

thank you for you time and answers in advance!

No not really.......

Marbled Hatchetts grow to 5cm.They can be aggresive and need schools of 3+.


my advice no hatchettfish in your tank.

OK!! thats all i wanted to know!!

Honestly don't know much about hatchets, but I haven't heard of them being aggresive. The only thing I've heard about them is they're really notorious jumpers and spook easily.

Mmm-hmm, they also are a fragiler fish than most others, due to their swimming habits and how their body only points upward. I wouldn't motion for the hatchetfish, but I love how the endlers look.

Yea, he's a hippocrite. I tell them their tank is way overstocked, but they won't listen.

Flagfish, you says hatchetfish need schools of 3+ fish, yet you only have 2 fish!

 

[Maj0rFiSh]

Exactly my point oddball~

 

[TYPO]

that being said. I know they are jumpers; i have a nice little plastic thing i can slap over the back of my hood to elimate ALL gaps.
