DEFINATELY get a Picasso! You must!
If you pair it with something else, just make sure that it's a percula and they should be fine.
What you can do when (notice I said WHEN, and not IF
) you order your Picasso from here is make a note to the shipping department in the orders "Comments" section requesting what kind of Picasso you would like to have; ie: one with the most white on it, one with connecting middle and tail bars, etc. and they will do their best to accomodate you.
Do you have a tank ready besides the 5 gallon one? I put one of my Picasso's in a 6 gallon Eclipse tank for a week when I had to treat it with Maracyn II and it did well in there by itself, but seemed "bored" because there wasn't really anything to "entertain" her or for her to be curious about.
Trust me, when you get your Picasso, you will want it to be in it's own little "showcase". I would say if you had something like a 14g like I have, or even a 12g, it would be perfect!
Sooooo..... you're getting one next week, right??
Well, if I need a bigger tank, then it will be even longer before I can get one! I don't like this hobby when your young and have no money.
I am looking into getting a nano, but they are sooo expensive! I should have kept my bigger tank..
I might end up buying a nano and after a while get a picasso. I hate that I have to keep putting it off!
One day though, I will have one!(or two!)
I guess I will have to make a plan.
