Bros, gd point to note for any hobbyist planning to hv a rocky setup. In my view, stacking rocks like stacking durians is not advisable. I hv had bad experiences 2 but now i factored in this problem whenever i plan any setup. Things like choosing the rocks v carefully for the type of formation; placing the rocks a few inches from the glass walls so as not to create small dark gaps to ensuring caves formed as part of the setup that can be easily reached by net. Unless one can find nice rocks with a flat side that can be placed firmly at right angle to the glass walls. So to mimic their habitat n to watch them mingle peacefully with other species r really pleasing to the eye. I hv reduced my fish tanks from 7 to 3...maintenance quite laborious leh. So fish breeding may hv to wait. However, shld it spawn naturally, then its my responsibility to try housing them to my spare 2ft tank.

No comments bro, you have got to see it for yourself to see if its worth. Because beauty is very subjective.
