I now have one catfish, probably a pl*co, (shop told me it was ancistrus,
but it doesn't have bristles on snout) two adult swordtails, uncounted
snails and just checked this morning and now have approx 10 - 20 swordtail
fry hiding in my "lobster pot" mock up (made from a lemonade bottle and
plastic pot scrubber). What does one do with these when they get older?

Give them away ;-) They breed like guppies. Mine never allowed more than
one adult male to survive in a 55 gallon tank. The Alpha killed off all the
males. Mean little sucker.
