Gabrielle_AnimalLuver envies... oouu, sand does make a nice substrate! And I love those... what are they called? rocks lol. @Shanna, that's basically what I need but in 10g. Now here's how stupid I am. Who's plants are real and who's are fake? Yeah. Mister and Plutto's tank is an El Natural Planted tank. No filter media (filter in general is pretty much opptional), lightly stocked, heavily planted, and very little water changes. Of course, mines not heavily planted anough to have to skip water changes, but I only have to do like 25-ish% every week. Everything is live except the ones that arent green lol

Actually, I wouldnt keep them with any other foraging bottom feeders, like Corries. I kept my ADF girls with 3 Panda Corries, and they got skinny fast. They are really stupid, and practiaclly blind, so they dont get much to eat in community tanks, uness you can target feed them with a turkey baster.

I just started my tank again a day or so ago. I got a picture of one of my little Pink Kissing Gourami :') It's a little blurry since it was taken with my cellular.

They would have waited there for hours I think lol Starr even learned how to come up to the surface for flake food! That was cute lol Its all about getting them on a schedual, and then really sticking with it. Once they learn it, they stick to it better then their owners do

Most ADFs need to be target fed, regardless of tank mates. Some just will not eat unless there is a worm dangling right in front of their nose. Others will eat no matter what. Always watch them at feeding time to make sure they are getting enough food. Shallow tanks are best because they breathe air, a 10g is fine. They like to have other froggy friends to hide behind. They mind their own business, so as long as none of your other fish are aggressive they'll do fine with anyone.
