:D Hi there... Just got a 90 litre tank setup a month ago and was recommended this site by someone off Trade Me!! What a great site!! I was going to ask some questions about one of my swordtails being preggers but have found the answer in another post!! Look forward to becoming part of the fishy(LOL) community!

Welcome to the fishy community, Chookness! :D

How is your new tank going? Tell us more about it.

Glad to hear that you are finding your way around and getting the information you need.

:D Hey thanks for the warm welcomes everyone!! Um our tank is a Jewel setup that we bought from Redwood aquatics. We started with 7 Rasboras which we got from Organisims. Then 2 weeks later added 3 swordtails (1 male and 2 females) and 2 Placostimos (sp!) from Animates. Have since lost 4 Rasbora to i think cottonmouth which I have treated the tank for and now have gained 3 swordtail bubies!! Its very exciting!! I would love to join you on chat on the nights I don't work or go to bed early (15 month old daughter tires me out!) :P

Your tank is not big enough for 1 plecostomus let alone 2. Assuming that is what they really are. If you mean bristlenose (Ancistrus sp.), which are often referred to as bristlenose plecs (but are not plecs at all) then they are fine.
