Im starting a planted tank, looking for any advice or tips..
29 gallon
sand/gravel substrate
java moss, java fern, amazon sword
red tail shark
5 blackskirt tetras
Will a red tailed shark destroy a planted tank?
They won't destroy a planted tank, but their activity could uproot them if they aren't well planted and the tank is small (a 29 gallon really isn't big enough for one of these guys, which will grow past 6 inches long and are quite territorial).
Reply:Nah, they're usually fine with plants. They'll graze on algae in the tank, but shouldn't uproot or eat the plants.
Reply:I have never had any problems with red-tailed sharks disturbing any of the plants in my aquariums. I have never heard of this being an issue with these fish.
