I’m well aware that the perfect conditions would be to setup a tank for each species but unfortunately I don’t have space to do so (apartment) 🙁
I already had a large plantedtank set for some time. So it was only sensible choice.
What it does provide are rock solid sustainable conditions for the delicate fish that would be considerably harder to maintain in the smaller tanks.
As mentioned before – I do have separate breeding tanks.
From my observations it is worth noting that the behaviour of the parosphromenus in 10l, 100l, and 500l tank are very different.
For the first time they are not secluded and do not remain hidden.
Feeding so far seems to go well and they have no trouble competing for food with gouramis.
