Thank you for that insight. How about fairly deep water with fish such as tetras? I assumed they may eat anything they can stuff into their mouths, which would include at least some of the tetras, perhaps. I have a 180 gallon paludarium with two land sections on either side of a 9" deep pool with a lot of aquatic plants, and water running across the front. It has both a large external canister filter for the water as well as the water being returned over a fern panel drip wall, colonizing now with Java and Ricca mosses, as well as some fern prothallium developing into ferns. I haven't introduced darts into this yet, as I've been vacillating over which species I want to use there. This is just a thought--that instead of darts, I might try some mossies. The fish are various tetras, some small varieties of cat fish and algae eaters plus a clown loach. I could replace the fish with fewer of a larger variety, as I have another paludarium with tetras where they could go. What do you think of this idea? The photos are various views of this.

I'll need to upload a photo of the waterway itself, as these don't show it.
