Would like to get any feedback on this fish in a planted tank. Looked like a nice fit for my 40 gallon planted tank according to the article in TFH August 2009 issue. Also known as a smiling acara.

They are great fish and I've never had any problems with them in one of my planted tanks. They are somewhat shy and like to hide among the plants.

I had one in my old 29 gallon planted tank and had no problems. I'm actually on the look out for these to add to my new 75 gallon tank http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/f...m-journal.html, because they were great.
