    What Do You Think Bout This One?

    http://www.petsmart.com/global/product_det...037042&Ne=2 We got these in at my work not so long ago. THere is little swimming room and right in the middle is where the airstone is...poor fishies get caught up in it and have no choice but be shot up to the top.

    Sand?

    HOw much harder is a sand bottom tank then a gravel tank to take care of? And do live plants do pretty well in sand? Or do they do better with gravel?

    Red Claw Crab

    Snails! Argh!

    Um..I think squishing em is a bad idea...I work at petsmart and according to one of my managers when you squish em their eggs come out ... but idunno. I know koi eat em..but you prolly can't put a koi in your tank..and goldfish..um..and of course the clown loaches.

    Stocking Plans?

    Alright..thank you. Yeah..I didn't really think much bout the heavy tank being on a wood dresser. It's a nice thick sturdy dresser..but it would still prolly start to get funky.
