    Help with new Dragonette

    I would love to train this guy, but in reality I should have a fuge and I need to build one. My next question. Does the piping need to have those bends in it on both sides. I`m not a plumber so this is all new to me and how would I charge something like this?

    Help with new Dragonette

    I recently added one to my 50 gal. tank and really like it`s personality and color. I`ve heard that a lot of these will die because of malnutrition. I would hate for that to happen to such a cool fish. Experts here can you give me some advice as to proper nuritment?
