As the title states, has anyone kept Nandopsis Haitiensis aka Black Nasty in community environments with luck? If so what do you have it with? How long have you had it? How large is the tank? Any issues youve had?
Thanks for the great info..If you keep them with others when young, they'll either kill everything or bloat and die.
If you keep them with anything else as an adult, they're about the same as a Dovii in my opinion. You may have a puppy dog that doesn't mind other fish, but you'll likely have a fish that's going to claim your whole 300 gallon tank and kill everything else.
As for temps, I keep mine right at 80 deg. He seems to be doing well at that temp.
Overall, I'd just keep them as a solo or pair fish. You're going to have nothing but a pain in the butt trying to keep them with other fish.
Just a single male in a 125 (6'x18"x21"). I might start looking for a nice female for him sometime. He killed his last female...Thanks for the great info..
You have a single or pair? What size of tank you keep em in?
