Hah! Well well, I will def. be prepared for anything then! I somehow doubt any fry would survive in this tank, It IS jungle-like with plenty of moss/wood etc, but the little boraras I have would be sure to pick them off!

I need to get a PH pen before adding paros to the new tank – the liquid API tests I have only go down to 6 and are crap when it comes to tannin stained water. I want to make sure there is a low enough PH that cycling isn’t an issue.

It will also be a nightmare to try to catch them in this tank…..there are some pics of the tank/paros on this link:

Any ideas on catching them? bottle trap? 🙂 rip apart tank plant by plant with tears of frustration? 😛
