Yeah I set it up like that with them in mind. As they keep growing up and I start re-homing the ones I won't keep, I will remove some of the decor

Thanks! Yes it's pool filter sand. Very nice looking and easy to clean. It's fine enough for them to play around and coarse enough not to float all over the tank when it gets stirred up.

At first I thought it was a bit crowded with decor but that's perfect for it's purpose. It has a nice natural look.

Alright, switching to sand. Looks awesome.

Looks awesome!

But how do you clean down in all those tight spots? Or do you just have powerheads/circulation fans blowing all of the detritus out?

I have 2 hydor koralia evolution 1400gph powerheads that keep the debris from settling down and I vacuum the substrate every 2 weeks or so
