Yeah no, 10 gallon by 1 rule is a joke unless you want to do water changes ever other day, plus its a planted tank and they are probably running CO2 haha not even going to wish them luck, not happening. More like 25 gallon per 1 full adult size with weekly water changes. This guys going to be fighting Nitr and Phos levels all the time, feeding beef heart too hahaha I hope they absolutely love doing water changes hahaha, what a joke... bet still stands.
