Your tank is stocked as it is, though, because that RTBS will grow a bit too big for your tank. |

They are found in both fresh and brackish regions in Javanese Islands. Therefore it's safe to say that you can keep them in FW. Besides, I've kept them in both conditions, and both thrived for two years until I dismantled the tanks. Most stores keep them in FW anyways, not that we should always follow the lead of LFSs on all things aquaria. EDIT: grammar Last edited by Cup_of_Lifenoodles at 18-Nov-2004 15:50 |
