The biggest alteration to the tank is NO Pictus Catfish. Now saying that, looks like the Pictus was snacking on them. I have no idea how long it has been there maxium time one month. *Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info* Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do. I VOTE DO YOU if not WHY NOT? VOTE NOW VOTE NOW

I am still waiting for mine to breed again, after the eggs they had, about 8 weeks ago didn't hatch. http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com

The most predatory fish I have in my tank might be the Syno, so I'm on the edge of whether or not to leave my BN fry (er, when my BN's actually breed) in the tank or not. I'll probably take them out, though, just so I don't have to really worry about them. I can imagine the sleepless nights now, lol. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
