hi guys 1 or 2 of you may know i recently joined the group after getting monty now then i am toying with the idea of getting a pal for monty ..... get monty sexed and a playmate but i know nothing about how this would turn out would they be pals or would ther be a fight to the death what would be the best way to introduce a mate if it is not a bad idea ? i do have an extra tank if the pairing is possible but not quite right on when or if its tried i need you guys to tell me of your experiences please

Royals are solitary creatures, they dont need friends except for jiggy jiggy happy times. I`ve never heard of any fighting either.

Just because they are the same age doesn`t mean they`ll grow at the same rate. I have a 6 and 1/2 year old Pastel male who`s only just over a kg.

Just noticed this, my OBT would suit the terminator, then again so would my Salmon, they are both incredible feeders, I have a Chilean too but it seems to be struggling, I think its wild caught I got it online and didnt know the history but I'm working with it the best I can, it will be OK or else.
