D dav1d84 New member Mar 8, 2006 #1 I have a few orange (with a hint of green I think) ricordeas. Few questions. 1. 65watts on a 20gallon, enough? 2. Low, med, or high flow? 3. feeding, will liquid pythoplankton or protein/fatty acid type liquid dosing be good enough?

D dav1d84 New member Mar 9, 2006 #6 I'm guessing it's stress, because it's been handled a lot, any tips on how to remove the stress?
