The problem is that the one in the store isn't for sale and the owner said he'd be getting a shipment of assorted L-numbers (including Golden Nuggets) in about two weeks so I'm not sure at the moment which variant he's ordered. I'm hoping that it'll be the smaller kind so fingers crossed

That's a shame, I guess I'll not be getting any Golden Nuggets in the forseeable future since I don't have the space yet for abigger tank.

Thanks,

thanks for the heads-up.. I guess I'll have to rethink buying one of them then. A 190L corner tank isn't going to be enough for one of them at full size.

so... which L-number should I be looking for if I have a 190 litre tank?

Hi,

I saw one of these at the LFS and the fellow running it told me it wouldn't get much larger than the 6 inches that it was at the time. That doesn't jive with the info here and I was wondering if that was just a lot of hot air (kinda like a fish will never outgrow its tank)?

heh.. seems like I've got a lot of options now:) I think I'll be going for a mostly play sand mix with some of what's called english sea stones here in Sweden. As I'll probably stock the tank with 3-4 A-Pectifrons I think I can use snails to churn it about a bit without getting a population ...

Thanks for the reply:) It's not my first time here on PlanetCatfish though, I just couldn't remember the password for my last registration (I posted a few questions under the name Andy a number of years ago).

I prefer catfish and that's why I've planned on using the sand.

Hi guys,

Does anyone have any pointers for how much sand would be needed for a 190L corner aquarium? I'm planning on having a fair amount of plants in it and I realize that I'll probably need quite a bit of sand for it to be viable.

Thanks in advance,

AndreasG
