Your question has already been answered.

If you choose to ignore previous advice to: (1) get more pictus and (2) get a bigger tank, there is nothing more to say and this thread is dead.

Well, I'll try to hold my tongue...but it won't be easy. I've dealt with this type of fishkeeper before.
In the end, I've let people have it for things such as this.

I understand that fishkeeping is a hobby, and not a cheap one. But, at some point you have to stop and consider what you are putting the fish in. This tank is the equivalent of making you live in a 4x4 ft closet. Can you do it?? Sure, you can. Will you be comfortable?? I think not. If you want your fish to relax, follow the advice...get a bigger tank and get him neighbors of his own family.

Right, this is meaningless debate about a thread that is about 2 months old.

I'm locking this thread before it gets out of hand.
