    This is a quarantine tank. Just to make sure fish are healthy. They will be going into a larger tank at some time.

    6 inches? I had a common place grow to 8 inches. Not in this tank. Dwarfs do not grow this long.

    The Rainbows are are about an inch and a half. They are not the large Rainbows that I have in other tanks. I have had DBNP spawn in this tank.

    You are talking about Plecos. Not Bristol nose which are dwarf. Only around 3 inches fully grown. I can believe stress. The plants should have helped him adjust.
