SAE - Aquarium Advice

Got a Siamese Algae Eater yesterday! I was in the lfs and saw a full grown one swimming with some clown loaches and thought he was pretty sweet. So I found a juvie a little over two inches and brought it home. It acclimated very well and has already made himself right at home. It swims with the lemons!! Pics soon...

Congratulations on the acquisition. I think that SAEs are great fish and have a couple in my 30 gallon tank. They are one of only a few fish that will eat BBA but they also like regular fish food like flakes and algae wafers.

Pics as promised. This is a pretty fun fish to have. Very active and playful with the tetras, and it's always eating it seems.
