Yeah it was either 2-3 Sevs or the BPs so my wife put in her $.02 and said she wanted the BPs

Gotta keep momma happy

barley pop, what kind of plants are in your Uaro tank?

 

[barley pop]

just diffrent fake ones.

you will not be able to keep live plants with uaru.

 

[cichlids4me]

the link you gave me mentioned anubias and java ferns since they have thicker leaves and have a bad taste. I use anubias with my mbuna and they dont really mess with them. I was thinking of trying these in my tank.

 

[barley pop]

it is worth a try.

i never did try any live plants as the will destroy romaine lettuce. that is one of their fav foods. (i feed mine romaine 2-3 times a week)

 

[cichlids4me]

yeah the link also mentioned to feed them leafy greens and would help to keep them from messing with your plants. but of course what might work for them may not work for me

 

[barley pop]

let me know if you try it...

i am upgrading my tank to a 220 and would not mind some live plants.
