Thanks for all the advises. My Palmas jumped twice already. Once when I just introduced him into my tub, I saw it jumped and landed on the floor. Took it up and place back in without any problem.
2nd jump was in the night but not sure what time. I woke up in the morning and saw it dried up on the floor. I was like . Lucky he survived the jump and now still in the tub swimming slowly around once in awhile.. Hopefully it will be fine. I keeping it in my 3ft x 2ft x 1ft (H) guppy tub for the time being. Still waiting for my new place to be ready as I have already gotten a 4ft x 2.5ft x 2ft cabinet tank to be shifted into. |

It seems like a lot of the birchir keepers here like to use sand/substrate for their tanks. Is it difficult to maintain? I know it look good and nice but won't the fishes' waste get caught in them and foul up the water parameters?
I am currently planning for my in coming tank with IOS filter system. What can use as the substrate and will it get suck up by the filter system? Where to get? The Oyama colour will be blue for my new 2nd hand tank. Is this ok cause I will be keeping Tigers too. Sorry for my questions as I am very new with Birchirs, was previously into goldfishes. |

Sand/gravel you can find anywhere man! And if it's sand, it will definitely get sucked up the filter unless you have a sponge or pre-filter. |

I'd opt for a red base with black on the 3 sides. My tigers are doing well with reddish substrate and black surroundings
