Killies in same tank

[Capt.]

Hello everyone. Right now I have a pair of aph. australe orange in a 25 gallon extra tall tank. At the local store they have golden wonder killies, which are Aplocheilus Lineatus. I was just wondering if I could add a pair of these too or would that not work well.

Also I have read that the golden wonders can get to be over 10 cm long, does that seem right? I am now worried that the golden wonders and possibly the australes that I have now will eat the endler's livebearers that are in the tank. The male endlers are quite small, probably under 2 cm.

Christian, you should value the endlers over Aplo lineatus. AUS should be ok but ask yourself this... which is more difficult to find?

Ronnie I see what you are saying. So you think the australe should be fine with the endlers in the long run? He seems to chase the female endlers now but doesn't show too much aggression otherwise. The tank is heavily planted and has a cave for hiding.
