The SAPs are doing good. Five of them are happily eating frozen food (mostly mysis) but two are still holding out for the snails and shrimp. More photos coming soon.

I just got the SAPs home.

No it's only 20x18", it's designed for dwarf cichlids. I have about 40-50 Apistogramma Baenchi in there right now with tetras, corys, ottos and amano shrimp.

Hi I'm setting up a new 100g tank for south american puffers. The tank is/will be quite heavily planted with lots of bogwood and fine sand. It's hooked up to the same sump as my other tanks including a large 200g planted show tank. I inject co2 and auto-dose ferts. Water quality shouldn't be a probl...
