Thanks TFG. I'll let you know how things turn out.
Raph Cats: Dangerous to Large Cichlids?
Hey,
So I ordered a raph cat to scrounge aorund the bottom and grab lost food. I've seen a couple posts recently mentioning that these fish can be dangerous to larger cichlids. In particular I know some had mentioned the fear that their Oscars would spine themselves in the gills.
I'm wondering if I should worry about this with my dempsey. I tend to think the dempsey, being smaller, would not attempt to swallow a raph, but I'm not sure.
Any experience or advice. TheFishGuy, I think you weighed in on this issue in some other threads. I would really appreciate your input.
