thanks very much. the planted tank is on the back burner for now. not sure what I am going to do there. but I know every time I walk into a LFS and see plants I miss a planted tank..lol
thanks. I think the tank will look really good when all these fish grow to full size.
having said that, it pretty much eliminates any loaches/cats of any kind because they will starve to death. nothing reaches the bottom with all these pigs. even now, I have to put a good pinch of shrimp pellets so that the bushynose can eat too..
