Absolutely! I've got one Calvus, smallest fish in the tank and nobody bothers him. Its like that with all my calvus. They'll square off with any fish in my tank including the big male bumblebee! They're really tough little fish!

Well, ya... they grow quickly but I can't say they just take over the tank. I have a few other fish that will chase others for a spell. The big black BB usually just chases the females briefly, then that's all of it.

I have some blue fish also (blue dolphins?) that will do a little chasing as well. Actually, the meanest fish that I have are those two red ones. Their mouthes are straight... weird looking fish. They do a lot of chasing as well.

I started out with about 6-7 of the fish below. Now there are two. They killed off each other, cool little fish though
