i finally decided what im going to do in my 29g...

i have about 8 baby convicts left from when my 2 adults bred (i no longer have the parents) and im going to grow them out and pick out a nice male and keep a single male convict in it... i figure it will be really cool since ive had them since they were eggs! when hes a full grown 6" adult male and someone asks me about him ill be able to say ive had him since he was an egg...

its a 29 g on a nice black pine stand with a fluval 205 canister, fluval heater, and a 2 bulb t5 light...

im going to keep it bare bottom with a nice big piece of driftwood as the centerpiece and maybe ill do a pot with some flourite in it with a plant...

would i be able to keep a chinese algae eater in there?

anyways let me know what you guys think!!
 
other than the bare bottom, sounds good to me. the CAE shoud be ok. they can get kind of aggressive sometime, but a convict should hold its own. especially if you get one smaller than your convict.
