    Woo Hoooo

    My pair of true percs hosted to a BTA in just a few days after their introduction to my tank 6 months ago. Ever since then, they have become very territorial and never venture out more than 8 or 10 inches away from the BTA...even during feedings. The BTA hasn't left its spot either.
