It was a little rough at first but I changed the design to a more natural set up and added rainbow fish and it's finally looking amazing!
Also just switched from an HOB to 2 canisters and it's working great!
I'm merging my 20 and 29 gal so I moved the 2 bristlenose plecos (one albino) from the 29 to the 65 and they are so much happier! They are out much more often, not as territorial, swim around, like the rocks and sand instead of the gravel. And of course they still have their driftwood and cave[emoji226]

29 gal:
They were very territorial in here and claimed a half of the tank and would seldom cross over or move much.
