hmmm notoriously hard to rehome and PLEASE DONT add any more fish to this tank. these fish are highly aggressive. you could try ebay but i would think if you can get someone to take one of these for free then you are on a winner, they are not desirable nor expensive. id be suprised if the fish shop would want it back at that size

i have not added any fish for ages because of her behavior i am happy to give her away as long as i know she is to go to a good home.
other then that i may have to rethink what is a good enviroment for her and how can i house her so she is at her least agrssive??
i was given her a year and a half ago when she was no bigger then 2cm long and i did not know anything about her as i had never come across one before. now she is huge and munching on my other fish.
if i were to get a new tank for her what size would it have to be and is there anything i can put with her. the only things that seem to stand up to her are my catfish.
please i would be most greatfull for any help anyone can give me

get the biggest tank you can afford maybe a nice 6x2x2 would suffice. the downfall is that this fish will have to be alone as they will even turn on there own kind and fight to the death.

The problem is the cost of tanks and equipment. If it was cheaper like in the states we could afford larger tanks.
Please put this into perspective just think of all the community fish that are kill by amateur fish keepers and the like. If we start asking for our hobby to be regulated then it will be us that suffers!
