I'm starting a new tank for my son's room. It is a 20 gallon regular, not sure what filter yet, but it will be fully cycled before I add fish. I had a lot of trouble finding tiger endlers in my area, and a couple of my local lfs's have said that they would buy them from me if I bred them. I've heard that endlers are less likely to eat their fry than other live bearers. Is that true?
I would like to get a pygmy breed of corydora as well. Will they eat the fry?
Since we want corydoras, we were thinking about using a sand substrate, but I'm a little bit concerned about the ammonia pockets I've heard sand can release. Is there anything I can do to eliminate this problem? Is there anything else I should know about sand substrate?
The tank will be planted with easy/low light plants.
Thanks in advance!
