I found a giant moor in the shop... *shame on me* It's a perfect fish, lovely tail and fins + a deep, round body  And of course that velvety black color. Haven't named him/her yet, but my fiance calls him/her "Sauron", since it's black with big eyes... xD 4 inches long, and Berry seems upset that she's not the biggest in the tank anymore :'D Wish I had space for the two buddies, fantails of the same size, one calico and one red  Off to change the water!  It's that time of the week

Ancistrus won't be any bigger than an absolute max of 8-10 cm, so thinking two liters for each cm on that would give each fish 16-20 liters only, this is 4-5 gallons per fish only  They also quite enjoy company being so small, so we've typically kept them in groups of three or more. They breed readily when they're comfortable  In your 10 gallon I think you could fit 2-3 of them without any bigger problems since they're not territorial. ( Link is not visible to guests.

You can keep one male or a sexed pair in a 60L tank, but you would need a much bigger tank to house two males as they are very territorial.
