Put them in they're 50 gallon heavily planted tank after a week in quarantine with a large sponge filter a ehiem pro 3 canister they stated swimming up and down glass sides non stop so I wrapped the tank exept front glass that helped but then they started digging down in substrate in corners of tank
And still have fadded colours so now two months in I'm treating with levamisol they're colour is starting to come back but still digging in corners
