Will severums, angelfish, Heckelii, blood parrot, Jack dempsy be ok with Veijas?
Or are there any other fish which would be better off with Viejas?
TIA

Since severums, and heckelli are soft, low pH water species, from mineral poor waters of the Amazon, in S America,
and Vieja and Jack Dempsey are are hard water, high pH , mineral rich waters from Central America (being a biotope aquarist) I would never keep them together in the same tank

Ok, thank you.
What other fish would be nice addition to veija tank.
The tank is 240cmx760cmx760cm. I’ve 8 veijas in there ATM. Would love to add few more Colors in the tank.
