Re: Considering these apistos and I'm New!

Lianne,
I agree with Gary - Borelli would be the only choice, with some comfort
feeling, to house in a 10 gl. Even though most of us, sometime or another,
have had success  placing larger apistos in a 10 you're taking a chance.
If those prices you quoted are RETAIL prices, when compared to prices in the
New England area, they are not bad .

Good luck
