Couldn't even taste them now. Most of them are about 1/2 inch long. Smaller == cheaper. They will all grow to 4 to 6 inches, so will be over full tank. I just got tired of having three 4 inch cichlids who hid under the plants.

So what did you decide? Going to get back or not? FYI, I finally replaced a 55 some years ago with a 90 and there is no comparison. The 90 has the depth that you can have a 3 inch rock level for plants and still have lots of room for fish.

Anyone see price increases for fish recently? I live in the Tampa FL area and it is one of the big markets for raising tropicals. Our cold weather has hit the 'fish farmers' very hard. Seems those tropicals don't care much for sub-freezing temps. Many reported 75 to 80% losses.

Seems like a great hobby. Hope it works out great for you.
