    Keep way overboard filtering methods as they are super messy I hear.

    I think you can safely keep some rock in there with them.

    ;D;D

    Hopefully someone who knows better than I do will chime in

    I used to have 2 red bellys. I only managed to keep 1 picasomous in there with them. He quickly outgrew them and they left him alone. After taking one of his eyes. But other then that, im not sure you can keep much with them.
