Thanks m8

We've got 3 in there, they're about 3 1/2 inches long now. They're not really shy as they come upto the end of the tank to watch what we're doing on the couch , which is right next to the end of the tank , they do get scared a bit when i clean the tank or if i'm fiddling with the lights or something above them.
As for plants....when we 1st put them in there they seemed to eat lots of the greenery. Luckily they just eat the cheap plants
so we buy more when they finish them off. They dont touch Java fern, Java moss, or Amazon swords. Also i think that since we've started feeding them algae wafers they dont eat as many plants.
Good luck with your dollars!
