Jack Dempsey & Tank Mates!
Hello everyone!
I have a young Jack Dempsey in a 53 gallon tank.
Here are the dimensions:
39.4 X 15.8 x 19.7 INCHES
I know he is going to grow to 8 - 10", and I think he'll be ok.
I also have a Clown Pleco in there.
I'm well aware that a Jack is very aggresive, and that he is an
unpredictable sort.
Given my tank size, what can I get away with without stunting my fish
or making them miserable?
I'd estimate my Jack Dempsy is maybe two to three inches at most.
I was thinking of a young pair of convicts - but I'm open to all
reasonable ideas.
Are there dither fish I can get that won't end up as lunch?
Thanks in advance,
NSP
