Hi Zapins.

Dithers are usually fish of other species that are tough enough to stand up to the fish you're putting them in with as a distraction to spread the aggression around. Of course they shouldn't be so tough that they are going to beat up on the fish you're putting them in with, and they should have similar requirements when it comes to water conditions.

Do you have any pics of your new fish?
