I'd pick the lot and the double wide too...

You can't hate on your wife... she shares the same dream as I do but I guess it is easier for her than it would be for me.

I hate country music

Okay. I've had it. Those frikkin angels are on a MURDER SPREE. They're goin back to FG tonight if anyone wants to buy 'em from there. They've already cost me over $100 bucks and now they're trying to murder another lot of fish. No ma'am!

[eklikewhoa]

move them to the hospital tank and separate them while the others accustom themselves to the tank. then put the angels back in and hope it works out better

[sunkenmetal]

damn... that sucks...

try what ek said

[sunkenmetal]

Angels of Death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aquabee]

I'm not sure that'll work. The emperors were bigger than the roselines and really fast too, and those got eaten and killed just as fast. And they were in the tank far longer than the angels.

[eklikewhoa]

Emps are dumb compared to the roselines.

[LooksLater]

Oh noes! Hope it works out, Bee- whatever you decide to do. I know you've been through your fair share of headaches with this tank already...but it's gotta smooth out eventually!

And LOL, Sunkenmetal. Indeed.

[eklikewhoa]

You could try my method of correcting them... a swift and well placed thump fixes them all!

[TaTeR ToT]

For sure my roselines are in my 75g with a 3.5" male green macro petro and a pair of Geophagus parnabai which are considered fairly aggressive and are known piscavores and they have absolutely no chance of catching my 1" roselines and they try all the time to catch them.

[Complexity]

Yup, roselines are extremely fast. There's a reason one of their other common names is torpedo barb!

But I understand what you're saying about the angels. I had the same response you're having. After getting some and putting up with their devastation, I got rid of them and swore them off for life. I find the fighting stressful.

Thanks! I think it's already smoothed over. The geos are resting in the sand at the bottom, the silver dollars just floating around in the middle somewhere, and the roselines are sleeping vertically positioned at the water surface. Lol! Frikkin cute.

Really good to know!

Oh man, when I showed the FG folks the video, they couldn't believe they were the same angels fighting so hard! They felt it was because my water temp was up so high (84F)... the males got into breeding mode and then got aggressive, since there were no females.
