first post, hoping you guys can help me.

I'm looking for a new wet pet. I live near Lancaster PA, so i will be getting either one from That Fish Place.

Which are more aggressive?

Which of the two lives longer?

Is one easier to breed than the other?

In a 120 could i keep tank mates with one, or do the both need to be solitary in a tank that size? (4x2x2)

Any help would be appreciated.

I would say they are both equally aggressive. A trimac is not a hybrid a FH is but they are both equally aggressive. Depending on the care given, both will live the equal amount of time. They live a very long time if you take good care of them. Again, both are very easy to breed. Basically they are equal. It just depends on what you like best.

Well flower horns and trimacs are very aggressive but depending on the nature of the individual fish you might be able to keep tank mates with them. If you get them at a young age and raise them together you have a better chance. I have a BP with my FH and they get along great but my FH is still a baby, only time will tell. But as they age so does their aggression so it's a risk. BP's work with them, so do cons.
