My hubby had this fish donated to his classroom by one of his students, and so it has been living in a 55 gallon during the majority of the school year. He had to tear the tank down since the school year ended, and did not want to mess with the fish as his school is 30 minutes away. I'm not maxed out on my 56 gallon, but I suspect that it would attempt to eat my corys if given half a chance. It is full grown at about 5 inches. Currently I have it in a 10 gallon that I intended for using with my corys, and unfortunately do not have another working aquarium to place it in. My other big tank cracked several years ago when I moved, darn it. It has a few guppies and a small crayfish that he couldn't give away in with it. Should I leave it, or can I get away with it in the bigger tank where I think it would be more comfy? I've got gouramies and several tetras in the 56 gallon, along with 6 corys.

Hey David, I had thought of that, and I have a wonderful local shop that I do lots of business with, but I'd really like to keep it as it's unique and not offered around here. I'm going to be greedy if I can care for it properly!! ;-) Of course, if I'm told by enough people that it sould be in a bigger tank but won't work in the one I have set up, I may not have a choice. BTW, there are hiding places for the crayfish and catfish, and are available in the big tank as well.
