I always thought that khulis need to be in groups wink.gif... also 180l seems a bit small for a sailfin plec to me... as well as a bit small for a BGK...

Most importantly, in my opinion, they must have a sand substrate tank good.gif

The gravel is like the size of 3 grains of sand, when its out of water and damp it still sticks to my hand.
Here is a pic when i was filling the tank. (Dont worry thats only half full)
