Scratch that. You're right. Im going to return the orange one and order two females on Saturday.
Penumbra said:Right.... Well I mean for a maybe every other day gravel cleaning besides water changes. After a few months (5-6) a family friend tells me you can just top off and change the water once a month. (he has 10 years of fish owning experience) so I'm hoping that my tank with proper maintenance will be there some day and that kind of... Hand held filter?... Would be quite useful. So I put some vines in there temporarily until I go to pet smart again... Their roots are exposed and the rather pathetic plant I first got I put on the surface with a foam block to float it. It's roots are hanging down and it's leaves hang over the edge of the block well into the water and a few hours later I'm seeing my male blow a few bubbles! I'm hoping with my next plants he will really make a nest. Also, my last fish in 2 weeks is going to be a second golden loach. They're so ferret like its crazy and I read that two makes for a happy loach. I read a TON so... I hope it is paying off!
