should I??? well I did it....

found a deal which means i will likely get a pair but i have had to set my tank up for smaller fry than i expected lol. I went with a group of 5x 3cm Channa ornatipinnis so bit of a challenge (not phased got you guyz to help) also got first lot of plants through and started reorganising the tank as my pair of JD went to a new home last night.

so more caves/ tubes and stuff, and more plants but just for mind sake am I on the right track?? also will be lowering the water level and sorting the lid/cover out

got a few more plants in today and some small tubs and more rocks, also ordered some water lettuce and butterfly wing floating plants should be here in a day or so should be ready for them, I do need to lift the light up a bit now.

Looking good, I'd also make sure any rockwork is very firmly in place and that the base is siting interested glass not ontop of substrate.

Most channa dig quite activly as they mature and can under cut or topple decore on top of themselves.
