that goby already got killed by another fish.

Man! Say what?!!

 

[Schmike]

it's sort of normal in my tank as most of those species that i keep are carnivorous and territorial. I've sort of lost count on the number of fishes that got (or almost got) killed or eaten up. :embrass:

With that money, isn't it better to set up another tank? :think: :dunno:

 

[Schmike]

no space for another tank.

some of them were fine in there for quite some time before they got killed/eaten. some lasted few days.

my tank is more like a "survival" course. need to be smart to survive. of course if the fish really cost a lot or is sure to be eaten i wont risk it in the tank.

i do have 2 "grow out" tanks for the really small ones to grow up to a certain size before i release them with the monsters.
