Is it okay to put a baby leo in with my banded

Just for a few weeks? The banded is a bit bigger but not by much.
I bought another baby leo and havent set his tank up yet so I popped him in with the banded.I bought them both from the same place and since the Banded was in with the leos at the store I figured they must get along okay.

I don't think thats such a good idea and I think so because they are from two different habitats, Tropical and desert.

First of all no. You shouldn't. Second Knobtailman not all bandeds come from the rainforest.

Sorry I guess I had a dumb moment. Anyways it's not recommended to mix species and the banded could show dominance even though it's only a little bit bigger.

I'll pull him out today.I just figured it wouldnt hurt for a few days till I could get a tank ready for the baby.
Thanx
