Looks good to me. They seem to have more than enough space! I've successfully kept three in a 10 gallon before.

The only thing I can think of is maybe add more decor; like fake plants or something. Be creative Smile

potted pothos plant buried into the substrate, that's what I do. Looks good and adds color.

Yeah add a plant or something. It looks great. I'm sure they're more than happy with all that room. Very Happy
