    Alge Eater with 2 x Calvus??

    What should I get, I am looking for something small, they currently reside in a 20 gal, but am going to upgrade. Feeding them bloodworm and flake. Find Brown stuff on glass and gravel, doing water changes at least once a week, feeding twice a day. I am also willing to get more than one if necessary.

    Oh yeah, about the fish, they are out more now (Temp was low now heater has it up) They are much darker than when they initially moved in, seem to interact well, have territory, and one is digging in the cave. I will keep posting progress. Thanks for all your help! Greatly appreciated!
