Hey thanks for the encouragement guys.
Clive, the idea is to get rid of excess fishes once the colony is set. i.e. Will get rid of excess males from fronts colony and few duboisi once they are mature and pairs are formed.
Thanks Abhi da.
I'm still looking for ideas to have natural looking setup without adding new rocks. Suggestions are welcome. |

Why not jot down the existing rocks in 2 sides of the tank and try give a look like cave formation .....keep the round stones in middle...also slope the substrate from high to low from back to front...and it will be from both the corner side .........in middle try keep flat......... |

Even I thought so, but since I had paid for them so dumped them in the tank ;)
Jokes apart, I will try to get rid of them or hide them in cave formation and will try to have caves on both the sides of the tank with gap in the middle. As Abhi da mentioned, let's see how it turns out to be. |
