Actually... now they mention it... they *do* make Pineapple 'spongebob' house ornaments

That said, of course the fish are bored... you have swordtails that get big in a tiny 17 liter tank... not much for them to do... filling it with ornaments wont change the fact...

Get rid of ornaments, put sand in instead of gravel, get some live plants like elodea, very easy to keep alive if you have a light.

Honeslty swords will much prefer open space and live plants than what you have right now.

Oh, and dont listen to silly shop assitants again!
