[KingGreenTerror]

hey Guys i have a 125 Gallon tank with 2 green terrors, a jack demp 2 clown loaches and 2 plecos.

I also have a 100 gallon tank with a 3inch Green spotted puffer and a tiger datnoid, 2 plecos and 2 Fire Mouths, and was wondering if you guys had any Advice on owning a leaf fish, or any experiences you have. wondering if it would be ok to put a leaf Fish in either of these tanks

Thanks

It would depend on the size of the fish in your tanks. If you were going to put it in a tank I would suggest the dat tank. How big is the dat and puffers? If the leaf fish was of reasonable size and the other fish were of similar size I would say it might work for a while, I would watch the puffers, they may nip at his fins and cause the fish to stress. Depending on what dat you have ,if it is a pulcher dat then the dat will need a bigger tank , if it is one of the smaller species then the dat may be ok in a 100g, but it will probably end up eating the leaf fish as it gets bigger. And putting it in with cichlids will not be good, there is a good chance that it will get harrased by them and end up dieing of stress or lack of food. In the long run nothing that you have will be compatible, my advise is to put the leaf fish by it self, Ime they do much better this way b/c they don't have to compete for food which they are not very good at. Btw these fish will generaly only eat live foods.
