    My ADA 60-F (60x30x25) is coming soon and I'd like some input. I think my envisioned options are modest enough for a 45 liter tank. The back third of the tank will be planted and divided from the rest of the tank with some rockwork and the rest will be very small (0,5 mm) rounded gravel. For...

    Does anyone think its possible to house a pair of GBR in a Mr. Aqua 12 gallon long? I know a 12 Gal Cube wouldnt work but with the extra swimming room I would think it would improve the chances.
