    This tank is still new, the drift wood is about a month old, and the java moss is just starting to grow.
    The Endler's in this tank are from the same fellow who sold me the Tiger's, they are in good health and I've already had some fry from them. I'll be adding new plants soon =3

    I agree, but too many male means more fights, and a female with too many hits becomes sterile...

    I heard that back in the 70's with guppies. That you should serape females for 6 months if they are consistantly breeding. I never did it, seems to me that would be more for show quality stock. I never really got into breeding livebearers. I just let them go at it.

    On normal circumstances I don't think it really matters, but I'm a "better safe than sorry" kinnda guy.

    Yep. Love the driftwood with the moss on it. I've never been able to get moss to grow on my driftwood.
