shadoh Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 Hi guys. I was wondering about the compatibility of Cochus Blue Tetras and Angels. Here's the story - I went down to the LFS this morning and noticed they had some cheap Rummynose Tetras. Unfortunately they only had 4 left (I'm planning on getting another 8-10). After floating them and letting them out, I counted 5 fish - 4 Rummynose and a solitary Cochus Blue Tetra. The two types were in the same tank together and he/she must have been scooped up with the Rummynose. He isn't very happy by himself. I have 2 options - I like the look of him, so would be happy to get some more to shoal with him, but only if they are compatible with angels, otherwise I'll take him back. What are your thoughts?
Fletch Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 Lol. I was only thinking of the angels eating the tetras. :-)
Wild Nut Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 Someone very recently informed me that Cochus blue are pretty aggro and fin-nippers. I've never owned them, but I believe they had/did.
Matt_95 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 They are terrible fin nippers, I will never keep them again!
2littlerevheads Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 i have tetra's in with my angel and have never ever had problems
Matt_95 Posted April 22, 2012 Report Posted April 22, 2012 Not all tetras are fun nippers, we are talking about the species Jarrod was asking about.
