Mixing Banggai and Pajama Cardinals, any issues?

[Westside Guy]

My LFS has both a Banggai and a Pajama cardinal in the same DT and they seem to coexist nicely. I am planning to add one of each to my Reefer 250, has anyone ever had issues combining them together?

I currently have 3 Pajama's and 2 Banggai's in my 125, with no issues. In the evening, when they light are going towards dusk mode, they even swim around together. I love mine!

It's fine, just always get them in M/F pairs... When they're juveniles it doesn't matter, they'll just school up together but, as adults, the there will be fighting over the odd Male or female out, when it's time for them to pair up.

If I get one of each do you think they will pair up as they grow older?

They won't necessarily pair up with the one they came with, but typically they all will. It's more of not having an odd one out, when they start to.
