The Stack was built to house my Modestas, Hymenophysas, and a river tank for
hillstream loaches. Given their reputation for aggression I wasn't prepared to risk upsetting the peaceful nature of the Hilton by adding 9 nippy botias, and the hillstreams definitely needed their own environment to do well. All three tanks are identical in size. |
