Purple Firefish and firefish can be kept together??

[qwertman321]

anyone have tried before??

[yikai]

firefishes bestkept only in TRUE pairs, or solitarily. most assume they can keep in groups but in the wild, they are found only in pairs. misconception. wild they form feeding groups but not schools.

with regard to purple and red. can, but with caution. they might fight. if the tank is big enough, no problem

yes. i would think so

Nope, 4ft is not large enough for this 2 species to be mixed with. Tried a few times and end up with only a single species left.
