hey,
I know that I need to put caves in my tank but what i don't know is what size they should be. I was reading around on some threads here and I like the coconut idea, but I don't know how big the hole will need to be for the fish to be able to fit through. i was also thinking about maybe getting a peice of PVC (theres tons around my work), and turning that into a cave. i could burry it in the substrate on an angle and then just cover the exposed area by syliconing some of the substrate to it. If I was to do this thouch I don't know what size pipe to use. Which idea do you think would be better? and what size should to hole be?
I'm going to have Apistogramma cacatuoides and Apistogramma borellii
Thanks
Geoff
