No, i was a bad mom and didn't do my research. I got "Panda" when she was just an eensy thing and I've had her for like... almost 2 yrs...? And just recently learned they are supposed to live in groups. Whoops. But, she loves my bettas and my pleco and I find her sleeping next to them often. :D LOL... especially when I had my old betta, Eli, who was.. well, old... and slept on the tank floor a lot. She always cuddled up next to him. I am thinking of getting some but she seems happy? Maybe soon.
I got the shrimp gravel at my local Tropical Fish Suppliers store. Its £9.80 ($15.73) for a 2kg bag. Its just very fine grade gravel 0.7-1.2mm. Lil more difficult to clean cos the grade, im gonna need a finer sieve for it ^^

I've had Chandler in his new 2.5 gal for several days now - although at first I just had the black gravel in there with a different rock decal - but the hole in the rock seemed too small for my big guy so I changed his tank to this "scene" with the bridge. He loves hanging out under the bridge - it is dark under there :). There is a heater in ther now (although it rarely comes on, the water is already warm enough) and I will be putting in a filter soon as well. I love those Tetra Whisper filters - very calm!
Next 100% water change I'm going to remove some of the black gravel - I think he has too much gravel in his tank. He needs a little bit more room.
