Who Gives A Fish Forums

I'm thinking of adding some river rock to the mix, but I'm not sure if it'll clash with the other rocks I've got in there - what are your thoughts, would it look out of place?

Did a bit of rock scaping in the tank today after adding those little Cobue yesterday. I've got some pics below - would love to hear your thoughts. Planning to make that left pile a bit higher for when my next fish batch arrives.

I've had similar experiences with fish that looked like they had bloat, only to find out they'd been sneaking in extra food. Try withholding food for a few days and see if that makes a difference - it might just be overeating, especially if they're getting into the Pleco wafers.

Thinking of adding red zebras, what's your take on that?
