Those logperch lasted about 4 years in my stream tank which is around 90 gallons w/ Aquaclear 110 and a Fluval 404 and around 2000 gph flow across the bottom thanks to a couple of powerheads (KORALIA 4 and a rio powerhead). I took that picture just before I switched out the gravel for 3 five gallon buckets of sand and rocks directly from a the Big River here in Missouri. Which really made all the difference since its technically live rock and sand, sometimes mayflies hatch from my tank. Thanks to the switch I am able to keep many species alive for a very long time that normal wouldn't last a few days. ex. River redhorse (kept alive for about 1.5 years and going) and suckermouth minnows still alive after around a year.
