Hello this is my first post just letting you guys know! I have an Armatus Payara around 2.5 inch I was going to put him in a 55 gallon with my bass but, he was too small. I eventually decided to put him in a 20 gallon fish tank with a power filter at the top. Right now the tank has gravel, a big colosseum decoration (where the payara hides inside), some feeder fish, and of course the payara. I have 2 questions

1. should I keep the colosseum and just keep the tank the way it is or, should I buy a big powerhead for the tank and put some driftwood and no cave to hide.
2. (this isn't really a question) My payara hides in the cave all day and comes out at night to feed,swim, and do whatever fish do. Is this bad? Should I take his hiding place out? please help!
