Re: [GSAS-Member] Newbie question - auctions

Hi, John.

Doubtless it will depend a lot on the size of the tank, amount of cover,
etc.  They would make a gorgeous tank mate combination, wouldn't they?

My personal experience has been male kribs can get very aggressive with
almost everything in the tank (had one beating up on my dwarf plecostomus,
which couldn't possibly look anything like another krib to it) when
they're in the mood to mate which is, well, pretty near always.

BUT, with lots of cover, in a large (say, 55 gallon) tank, I suspect it
could be OK.  My impression is kribs stay pretty close to the nest when
feeling territorial as long as they can't see anyone encroaching. 
Obviously, YMMV.
