I just set up an aquarium with large pebbles/small river rocks as substrate, like this: http://www.planetcatfish.com/images/full/_misc/natural/sumapaz_substrate/1.jpg

Now my question is, would my catfish have a hard time scavenging for food in between the rocks? Will the water quality degernerate faster with this form of substrate because of the food that gets "lost" in between the rocks?

I have two 8" lima SN, i 8" TSN, a 7" black shark, 6" featherfin cat, 5" raphael, and four 4" silver dollars in there.

Thanks!
