Okay...I have researched this for ever...There are mixed experiences (seems to be the case with almost everything in this hobby :at_wits_end:) about these beautiful, agressive fish. So my plan is to buy a mated pair of equal size of the yellow stripe maroons and introduce them at the same time.

If anyone has advice on how they SUCCESSFULLY introduced the YSM I would appreciate it. Thanks!

i threw mine in at different times and the 2nd one was a lot bigger but they didnt fight or anything. luck of the draw i guess.

try and see if a lfs will pair them up for you before hand. id try one small and one medium size.

why would you pair them large and medium? Is it so they will not have to fight long to establish the pecking order?

you could, but the large ones are REALLY aggressive and IME, are harder to pair up than a medium and a small.
