Will PVC hiding spots create dead spots?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
yeah they will be underneath driftwood and sand so thats not a problem and yeah i plan to vaccum them when i do waterchanges so that should help and thanks i actually thought they grew slower than that so thats great to hear once they reach the 5-6 mark they should be out the of the woods with danger from the baby cichlids, soooooo will be getting the knife as soon as i get my tank set up in two weeks!!
 
^ if you want.. you can smother the the clean pvc with aquarium silicone and cover it with some gravel, gives it a more natural look :D
 
thats actually awesome idea but theyr going to be buried under the sand and driftwood so really the only part that will be seen is the rim of the opening :)

well theoretically this is new idea i came up with so dont know how it will work in practice lol anyone have pics of a similar set up?
