    I changed my 20 gallon long from a slate and some ‘grass’ look to fine gravel and a mix of rocks of all sizes and colors. Smoth though. Nice plants too. Not meshed together really, but pleasently planted It’s mostly for my Corys.

    It’s got:

    – 1 seriously big and round Peppered Catfish
    – 1 Bronze Catfish
    – 1 ‘Gold Green’ Catfish that follows and is always hanging out with the Bronze

    – 3 Corydoras hastatus
    – 4 Corydoras pygmaeus

    I call the big guys my “Cats” and all those pygmys my “Kittens.”

    Also got my 4 neon tetra and 3 white clouds in there, but they mostly hang out by the filter outflow.

    I ordered 5 more ‘Pygmy Catfish’ (i died soon after arrival) after taking all 5 hastatus home. (2 died right away), but they turned out to be a different type. The place we order the fish from sucks at giving the right names of fish, and nothing latin whatsoever. :roll:

    All the pygmys are darn cute though, and swim out in the middle often, in the pygmy style.

    Wish I had a camera last night when all 2 of the cory hastatus were sitting on a smoth rock in a perfect row in my direction. Cute! Cute!! Cute!!!

    Pictures ASAP I promise. ;)

    Oh, late thursday and friday we got in a bunch of different beautiful catfish. As I told my boss, who is doing the ordering when the reguler fish room assitant manager girl is away,

    “It’s not fair! You found my weakness but I can’t take them all home!”

    *laughter* :roll:

    After reveiwing those cory’s profile I decided to get rid of a bunch of the rocks and replace it with more gravel, or possibly something a bit finer.

    Still some nice colored rocks for the kittens to perch on though.

    That will be after I cash my check of course. Don’t keep much on hand… I’ve joked that my purchases should be automatically deducted… Hey, what would you do if you worked in the fish room? :D

    Of course I have to restrain myself…. :roll:
