Quick question...what are the swamp eels? Are they Amphiuma, Sirens or
are they fish (Anguilla or Synbranchus!?!?!?).

> I've got a juvy flagfish with H. formosa, small swamp eels, banded dwarf
sunfish, and a small crayfish. He is playing well with others. A friend of
mine has had bad experiences with adults though, they were in a 75 with
gouramis, corys, etc. I guess the tropicals became the object of the
flagfish' aggression.

of good size. I personally won't keep the flagfish with any Elassomas. My
pygmies only have to put up with H. formosa. :)
