Does L183 need wood?

Hi all,

At the moment I am babysitting a large number of fish for a friend of mine. They are all together in a 1000 liter tank. Among them are some L183. I would like to put those in a separate tank to try to breed them. From their poop I can see that they have been eating wood. Is that something that they really need? Do I have to supply them with some wood in the breeding setup?

Thnx :)

It couldn't hurt. If you can tell they're eating it then I say you should put wood in.

Mine is constantly on the wood, so yes. She barely leaves the driftwood. I can count the few times I've seen her on the glass or eating at the zucchini on one hand. They definitely benefit from it.

They have two small pieces in the breeding tank :)
