Which is this?

It was in the CAE tank but most of them had a broken line this one has a solid line,whats the best way to distinguish one from another?

That still looks like a CAE to me . . .

The SAE has a thick black line down its side as well as a light belly and barbels around its mouth.

CAE. It has a sucker mouth for one where as SAE's do not.

I figured it was,it was different than the others in the tank so I took a chance.Once the 75 is setup I'll just leave him in the 20 with the goldfish.

ooOoOOo Ruthless... CAE need warm water. Goldfish are cold water.

The Fantail has been in this tropical tank for close to 2 years at 78 degrees,I haven't seen any ill effects from it.I don't even heat the tank,its just the warmth from the house.Has great color,eats well,swims around,grew nicely.

He is great for cleanup and he regulary picks up gravel in his mouth and spits it back out,helps keep the plants happy.

Not saying you're wrong,just saying I haven't seen anything that shows its affecting him.

I hope he doesn't start sucking the sides of your goldfish off...

If that happens..

He gets cut up and fed to the birchirs
