- A body I know that raises P. Scalare for sale uses either 29 gallon
- or 45 gallon tanks; bare glass bottoms; some plastic (gasp, yes)
- swordtail plants that go from top to bottom & hook on the bottom
- with suction cups; & a slate wedged in for egglaying.

- I had two pair from dime sized to half-dollar; not sure to this
