I am just waiting until my next paycheck so I can buy some substrate. =) I am hoping to have it done by the middle/end of October

what species do you have JMT? and how big of a tank? I am thinking about getting some indos to put in with my PPs, I was thinking maybe E's but im nervous about their craziness lol.
