I recently got a 5-6 inch Blue Acara. He has the greatest personality, very social and very delicate on the plants. Just a sweet fish.

Best plants to put in pots?

I'd like to put potted plants in my grow out tanks since they can be easily moved when its time to net fish. Which plants work well in a low tech environment and in a pot?

Skunk loaches are pretty aggressive. Try zebra loaches (striata). A group of six would be entertaining to watch.
