Billaney Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 I take it the Mollies , Discus, Swordtails and Gourami's are in there as future live food ? if not i'd move them quickly because with those tank mates they will not be collecting a pension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
