tell stealth to stop moving and show me his cute little self! my largest pleco is about 13"
Thanks; I like to be an independent thinker with regard to "overcrowding" tanks. Of course, I never advocate putting species together that have different temperature and water type requirements.. but food you can work around. As long as everyone's getting the type of food they need, it's fine, even if you have to feed on opposite ends of the tank.
Do you have a link to some pics of your tanks? I do remember seeing them before and they looked awesome from what I remember!
