-75G with seven 5-7" goldfish and two 8" plecos. A few large red ramshorn snails.

-Java fern and anubias in tank, with moderate BBA.

-Goldfish relocated to pond a couple months ago.

-Red Cherry Shrimp appeared in the tank...they came in on duckweed from the RCS tank but I figured they all got munched.

-I feed the plecos, but not specifically feeding the RCS

So, there are over a hundred RCS in this tank now. Interesting to observe the RCS' behavior when they have the run of a 75G tank and are not threatened. I have one male that patrols the ENTIRE tank perimeter.

Point is...the BBA is almost GONE off the plants...80% at least. Even most of the furry fringes around the anubias leaves are gone...:clap:

Life is good with RCS. Now to get them to clean the litterbox :)
