I am setting up a 55g for a couple of black and couple of white calvus and was just courious what be the best to use for substrait? I will be using dark or black rock. i would think that a dark substrat might be best.

Where are you planning to get your calvus from? If you are ordering some let me know and we can share the shipping.

I think some black 3M quartz and some white rocks would make them really stand out!

You could get some of the little Punks from JFP they would be pretty cool in your setup.

I think that Chris may have gotten some of these from Canh. A pretty cool looking fish. I just might have to add some when I get the tank up and running.
:D:D:D Yup- they're in my tank now. I was thrilled when I saw them. Perfect fit!
Blake, what was is name of the little Brichardi lookin guys with the white body and yellow fins? I got 4 of those also, one got eaten though. :mad:
David, I have a half bag of black. There's also some special huts for them- tall narrow dudes, I'm pretty sure Ken's sells em cheap. I could use one also.

Thanks for the offer but I have a bag of black and one of the white. Now I have to find some black or really dark colored rock.
I've got about 8 pieces of that marbled black/white rock if you want it. [offer is for David]

Yup! those are the ones. Gary might still have his...I think he got rid of his fish, so he might have a couple huts to get rid of too.
The rocks are in a bucket in the fishroom- I'll make sure they get ready to go.
