I've had 2 balteata together in my 75 gal. laoch tank for a few months and I love them. They're almost always visible and have great personalities. Thy chase each other around a bit, especially at feeding time, but it seems like harmless play. I do have lots of hiding places for them. Here's one of mine.

they ain't bad then as long as there's plenty of cover in the tank.
