Aquarium Advice Addict
HN1 and I picked up 2 darters yesterday at a club meeting, hopefully a pair. The only info on the bag was "green swamp darter" but we have tentatively ID'ed them as Etheostoma fusiforme. We have them in a 10 gallon open top tank right this moment, but after reading a little about them, I decided to redo our 8 gallon JBJ Nano so I could get them into a tank with a lid. What little info I could find suggests that they would appreciate plant cover and driftwood on a sand substrate. Here's what I came up with for them.
I took the stock filter out of the tank and replaced it with an Azoo Bio Sponge filter. Lighting is the stock 11W power compact bulb. Darters are going into the tank in a few minutes. I'll try to update with pics or a video later.
