Planning out a new build (probably ~180 gallons), and I really want amore or two. I love watching them eat, and I think they will work well with the aquascape I have in mind (several large caves for them to chill out in). I was thinking about getting one zebra and one chainlink. I read somewhere that it's best to introduce 2 at the same time if you're going to have 2 so that they can sort out their separate territories. So questions are...
1. Can they be added as the first fish after fishless cycle (except maybe a couple clowns which I already have), or should I wait until stuff is established? Will they react negatively to other fish introduced later?
2. Do they do OK in a bare bottom tank?
