Wow, it looks like despite the best of intentions I may have screwed up. I suppose I could get more cover in the form of plants, and a really low-power led hood to light them...I'm thinking very low light stuff like anubias/java fern/anacharis. Hopefully I won't be introducing algae doing this :( As...

I set the tank up for breeding and to make it easier to clean. If it will make them happy I suppose I can add some more wood, but I don't light the tank, so plants are out of the question.

Hi all, I have had 8 of these little guys for a week now, and have been feeding daily, usually a small hikari sinking wafer (They congregate around it and I give them an hour at it, then I vacuum the remains), and every so often they get frozen bloodworm or frozen baby brine shrimp.
