Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Fishtank Help

yea my g/f loves those guppies....

aquabid works for you? i went there a few days ago and the site had nothing and looked abandoned....
 


works fine for me, im checking out some peacock eels now for sand stirrers.

ill post new tank pics later, i did some work in the tank.
 
Dammit, I just ****in lost my dwarf flame gourami, WTF the angels are healthy as can be, why the gourami? UGH water test is still perfect, but it is very swollen.
 
I took a h2o sample in, it was still very habitable, so replaced the gourami with 2 more kuhli loaches figuring the 3 of em would kick the sharks ass, I was wrong. Shark has all 3 of em cornered in a plant.



Get some pics.

Its a rainbow shark, supposed to be more docile then the red tails.

I got rid of him, turned him in for a new fish, didnt get one so I got a 10 bucks live fish credit( enough to pay 2/3'rds of a new GBR), I did pick up a solid red betta for the tank and all is well again.

Here.

Here is the tank again


Here is the new boy




Here is my two 9k gallon warm and cold water tanks

Here is the warm water




7 large channel cats- 15-30 pounds
5 large flatheads 20-60 pounds
3-4 dozen panfish 1/2 - 3 pounds
2 gars one little guy and a big one
1 big carp- 22 pounds
1 big drum 8 pounds
1 bullhead - 1 pound
a bunch of small and largemouth bass 1-7 pound range

Cold Water\





In the cold water tank
Rainbow trouts full grown rainbows...maybe 3-5 pounds
musky 20 pound range
several large walleyes 8pound is the largest 3 is the smallest
tons of panfish
smallies and largemouths 1-7 pounds


I am getting ready to set up a desktop 10g for fancy guppies for breeding
 
9K each, there are two of them

then there is a good 500 gallon pond too. all connected.

The problem is they arent native to the region we are in so we cant have big peacocks and mainly S.A native fish.

I dont think an arowanna would stand a chance against the toothy fish we got in the tank. I think the big gar would consider it a threat due to body shape

Moved em on up, just like the Jeffersons. This is my absence alibi.

Looks nice WD... I see you got a nice mixture of plants, some real?
Click to expand...

all are real except the tall two in the left corner, I ordered new plants(live) for that corner but they havnt arrived yet, its only been a few hours, but the few fish that need that thick cover are in my tank so I had to use plastic ones for now.

Its all gonna change next year, next year itll be crystal clear water with absolutely no mechanical/electrical filtration, the soil will be a giant filter.
 
I was walking around a lake today and debated catching a sunfish and throwing him in my fish tank... haha... they are pretty actually.
 
yes but you cannot release them to the wild after you have them in your home tank, possibility of tropical diseases and stuff that come with a very hefty fine especially in MD, after your snakehead incident.

to be honest, youd need atleast a 75g for a pair of panfish, 250g for a largemouth and a single channel cat then atleast 1000 gallons to have more then 2-4 fish.
 


I wasn't really going to do it. The snakehead incident has been over 18 years now, haha. The Lake we freed him in is where the Sun Fish are now.
 
Finally got my tank set up, just set it up about 3-4 days ago, still need to wait a little while longer to put the cichlids in it. Here is a few pics:

Let me know what you think. Any suggestions are always welcome. In case your wondering i'm going to be putting African Cichlids in the tank when it has finally cycled properly.
 
ok so i'm slightly retarded when it comes to posting pictures they seem really huge, and i cant figure out how to edit the post and to put in smaller versions of the pics.
 
I think it looks pretty good man IMO...I've just read on many places you want the middle of the tank open and the sides more full of plant/hiding places...but to each his own. Here is mine...I'll be upgrading once I move out in a month or so as these guys need some more space...this 30 galloner is TOO SMALL for em.

Green Terror, 2 Black Convicts, and a Jewel Cichlid...

And my plecostomus that I've had for over a year now...when I bought the fish it was no bigger than a inch or so long...it'll be much bigger when I get the 75 gallon!! :D
