What's a good starter Acro
I would like to add my first Acro to the tank. What's a good? I think I read some thing that said the browns might be a tad easier? Any truth?
I have some red and green Monti's that are doing great. So, I think its time to take it to the next level.
Tank is a 92 corner with a 250 watt MH 8" off the surface. Thanks

try a blue tip stag or a green slimer. both are relatively easy and grow pretty quickly.

i have both green and blue slimers, the green seems to grow quickly/recover.

Most Monti caps, digis and so on are easy to keep and quick to grow.

Any ORA stag or milli would be a good choice, IMO.
