Hi tzenlip

All of my tanks have been up and running for over a year.

The top photo.
This is a 10 gal that is drill, It is set up for auto fill/drain.
I do daily water changes.

The Females were 4 to 6 months old. That was 2 months ago.

As there is no Algae left in this tank. they are feed Spirula flakes, Dandelion greens ,Green beans, Spinach.

The bottom photo
Is a 30 gal breeder.

Pretty much the same as above, but, it is very heavily planted.
I sort out of here for best color.

I Hope This Helps
John
