    Hi guys, i picked one of these up today to occupy an empty tank. Always wanted a leaf fish, and nebulosus are quite a hardy species, often occuring in Singapore too aparantly..
    Anyway, i have a question. How much flow can they tolerate? I have a small peice, perhaps 2 inches or less, in a small 18 inch tank (eventually will be moved into bigger tank) with a small internal power filter and lots of plants, soft acidic water. I have blocked the flow out up with some sponge at the moment, as im not sure why but i have a feeling they dont like hardly any flow...is this true, or can they handle some flow?
    Thanks.

    They can handle some flow, but keep in mind their natural environments are swampy and stagnant enough for these fish to be able to mimic leaves floating around. But that aside, i'd imagine you could treat them like slow moving bettas.
