It would be cool to find some type of transparent tubing to make the cave, so you could bury it in the gravel in the foreground of the tank, and still be able to see the little guys in there.
The LFS I go to in Toledo carries different widths/lengths of riser tubes for UGFs, maybe this is something you coud use. I like that Idea of putting it somewhere where you can peek in on their playtime
I actually was thinking about putting it in the foreground with a 1/4" cut into
it nudged up to the glass, so you could view them from the front glass also to have moss growing on it and the gravel siliconed to it sounds awesome too, maybe a little bit of both.
I definely need to add more interesting things for my fish, they're all inteligent species that need much stimulation.
it's a 29 gallon right now but will upgrade to a 55 or 75 next year.
how do you think these fish will react to the tunnel? I'll post some pics when i put it in.
29 Gallon
my fish:
• 1 Senegal Bichir 5" baby
• 2 boesmani Rainbow (male; female)
• 2 Botia Modesta (Blueberry Loaches)
• 2 Dwarf puffers (nice to other fish - mean to eachother)
• 2 Leopard Ctenopoma ( African Climbing fish) (Petsmart called these Leaf fish.)
The rainbowfish won't care. They're not into tunnels.
When you upgrade would you please consider bumping the Boe school to at least six? They need others of the same specie around them. Six is min, more is a lot better.
