moondog Moderator The Hobnob-lin Posts: 2676 Kudos: 1038 Votes: 4366 Registered: 30-Sep-2002	this is the start so far. i don't know the exact type of sword i've got there, the store just had it listed as "large sword" on the side of the tank. so if anyone can help me out with the ID on that plant.... current inhabitants are 3 clown plecos and 2 pearl gouramies "That's the trouble with political jokes in this country... they get elected!" -- Dave Lippman

In any case, your 50G looks rather shallow (breeder tank, right) and a sword that is labeled "large" is probably not the best idea. Do you have an open top? And in general, your profile lists quite a few plants (and fish) for our 50G. Is this one a new 50G or what happend to the existing one?

It gets big, real big Some days you're the pigeon and some days you're the statue. Remember that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and ability.
