I would say thats too big for this tank, but they might make a nice addition to the 75g when I finally get that setup so I will have to keep them in mind.

What book do you use? I saw Nation Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Fishes for sale at Borders in Buffalo the other day and I thought it seemed to have quite a bit of information and good pictures in it to help identify what I find.

I'm going to stop by the same spot I took that picture later today and get more rocks if the ground isn't too soggy from the rain we got last night. I will probably get a bucket full so I have plenty to choose from.
