Hey guys, I've got a p. carpenteri, and I've just ordered a p. mccoskeri and linespot (sorry...can't remember the scientific species name now). I'm thinking of adding a filimentosus to the order as well, but I wanted to be sure that it would be ok to have 4 of these guys instead of 3 (I know for some genus of fish, you have to stick with odd numbers). Thoughts?

They should all be fine. Your tank is large enough where even if there was some chasing, there should be plenty of places to hide. Add them all at the same time and that will minimize issues.

Thanks!! That's the plan. ;)
