im looking on aquahobby and a large majority of the people say that they are keeping figure 8's successfully in a community tank... and i must admit i am tempted to do so as well seeing as people claim to keep them peacefully with angels, bettas, and plecos..

if i did put him in my community tank it would be in a 29g with some white clouds, 7 black line rasboras, 4 kuhli loaches, 3 platies, and 3 rams. these fish would probably out run him IF he got the munchies... i was guessing i could just try him out in there and if i see aggression put him in a 10g. i just dont think its right for me to jeprodize my other fishes safety.. what do you think?
