Jacob042426 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 would i be able to keep more than one? Link to comment
supernip Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 im unsure, ive only kept them on a few separate occasions. once i had a pair in a 4g and they were fine together. But I would be weary of cannibalism Link to comment
Jacob042426 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 ive read of people keeping a pair of anglers and having them spawn, maybe i could try that if i find them? Link to comment

Jacob042426 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Id love to have a pair of spawning tuberculated anglers! It has become my dream! I'm serious about doing it though. Link to comment
altolamprologus Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 You can keep them together if: 1. Both are the exact same size and well-fed OR 2. One is female, one is male and they accept each other as mates, in which case the male is usually smaller but doesn't get eaten because fertilizing offspring is more important. Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 At the Waikiki Aquarium, I saw like three or four anglers in the same tank... Some were smaller than others, but all were very large. Link to comment
Jacob042426 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Nips, how much were your tuberculated anglers? Link to comment
supernip Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 i believe the red was 60, and the purples were 40 a piece. they arent common so unless you get in contact with a hawaiian diver expect to pay more at the risk of sounding argumentative, I dont recommend you aiming for offsprings. few hobbyists know what they're doing, anglers arent as easy to breed as clowns. and I doubt you have the facilities. anglers of the same size will also try to eat each other. caveat emptor if you decide to buy more than 1.

Jacob042426 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 i am going to pm pico again with the new dims. i think i will ask for the aio section to be smaller and in one corner. how does that sound? Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Just buy an aquarium and put the fish in it. It saves time and money. Link to comment
Euphyllia Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 You're like freaking custom-creating your own tank and stand. It will probably turn out cruddy TBH, so you should spend less money on a pre-built aquarium that will hold water. Link to comment
Jacob042426 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 i want high quality custom tank for my bar-mitzvah. what is wrong with that? i dont love most pre-made dimensions. Link to comment
