Siren intermedia !

[dot]

I got three lesser sirens today from Pete and all of them arrived alive and they seem to be adapting well to their new tank. My cat is absolutely fascinated with them and they've been situated in the tank now for about half an hour, and within the first ten minutes, already uprooted the two Amazon Sword plants.

Hi Dot,
I have never had any luck keeping rooted plants with Sirens. They uproot them until the plants die. Try using a layer of floating plants like water sprite.

Thanks everyone,

They're all eating well and seem to be settling down. I think I'm going to try getting some java moss for the sirens (and my axies) and see how that works.
