Tomatos w/ Perculas??

[rob2]

I have a pair of percs. in my 60gal. and a pair of Tomatos in my 30. I'd like to "combine forces" in the 60 (expense issue) and am wondering about the likelyhood of the two species getting along.
Thanks!

Rob2,
I don't think that it is a good idea to combine them, my tomato clown harassed my poor percula to death before I could separate the 2. I was very upset with my lfs for not warning me that this could happen, especially when I had asked about compatibility.

The first fish I got was a toamto clown, abot two weels later I got a pair of perculas. This was about eight months ago, and the clown is starting to beat the percs up. The tomato is about 3.5" and very fat. The percs are about 1.5". The tomato is going back when I change my substrate.

Yeah i like both percs and tomatos but they don' really like each other. You would probably regret combining them.
