    Well I want just a bottom feeder. If shrimp are a pain in FW, then I'd deal with a single fish. I also noticed a "dwarf suckermouth catfish" (Otocinclus affinis). They get 2" in length, and could be kept as a pair. :huh: I would like to keep my fresh tank, it is so easy to keep up. :D

    I have 10lbs of gravel, some rock slate, and one piece of driftwood. The rock tend to up the pH, while the driftwood lowers, so it balances out ok. Don't clown loaches get towards the long side of the scale? If memory serves, they can get up to 1 foot long. :?:
