Yes, size is a factor. The larger they get, the more aggressive they get. You have about a 1% chance of getting a fahaka that actually lives with other fish. Mine is in a tank with guppies that have breed and multiplied. I saw her a few days ago eat one. This was the first time she has eaten a guppy (that I know of), she also has at least 6 ghost shrimp living in the tank. I haven't seen her eat any, but yesterday she got close. I have her tank heavily planted with thick plants. The guppies have plenty of places to hide, now she's getting a bit more clever at hunting them down. I may have to remove them but at the moment I am treating her for worms and don't want to expose another tank. It's good to hear that you have rehomed your other fish. That was a smart move. Now how about some pictures of your fahaka?
