| FJ . . . your right, we all have our opinions and of course you have yours. I think there are various opinions about what you can keep a BTA under but having kept one for 2 years and then taken it back to the LFS who run VHO's I would say we should try to keep them under the optimal conditions that the creature requires and in my opinion that means MH. It was huge and glorious in my tank but it got soooo big (over 2ft) that it had to go back. Now it is half it's normal size and desperatley looking for another MH home. Lets face it, we could all survice breathing air 10ft behind a truck but would you want to for the rest of your life. JMO buddy, hope it does well in your system.
