    Great fish, love wilds! It's my understanding that the pothos leaves will melt if left submerged for long. Has that been your experience? I have mine with the leaves above water and the roots in the tank.

    Very nice fish and a great set up. Good luck with your fish and post more pics as the fish settle in. Really hope the fish do well for you.

    Not all will melt but the new leaves will grow small in size. I left one end above the water.

    Beautiful fish and tank but you are risking too much, one week is no quarantine.
